   1989 John Ferguson (Montreal Canadiens) "Thunder And Lightning" Book   
      
      
   I have for sale the out-of-print, 1st edition, hardcover book "Thunder And   
   Lightning" by John Ferguson (1989). This 1st edition, hardcover book   
   contains 334 pages of text profiling the life of Montreal Canadiens'   
   enforcer, John Ferguson.   
   Front Jacket Excerpt:   
   "If the Montreal Canadiens had a weakness in the early 1960s it was size.   
   Too often, small Canadiens were being battered against the boards and   
   checked out of action. In 1963, that problem was solved, and a big part of   
   the solution was John Ferguson. Chosen out of the American Hockey League by   
   Frank Selke, Ferguson showed up in training camp with the reputation as a   
   good hockey player, and one who hadn't lost a fight in the AHL. He lived up   
   to his reputation during his first game in Boston. At the opening faceoff,   
   he got into a fight with Ted Green, which he won. Not only that, Ferguson   
   proceeded to score twice that game, which ended in a 4-4 tie. John Ferguson   
   played for the Canadiens for eight years, until he retired in 1971. During   
   those years, he shared in five Stanley Cups, played five hundred games,   
   scored 145 goals and 158 assists, and spent 1214 minutes in the penalty   
   box. An extremely aggressive forward, he acted as the club's policeman and   
   extended his dislike of opposing players off the ice."   
   The 1989 John Ferguson "Thunder And Lightning" 1st edition, hardcover book   
   is in MINT condition.   
   Price $25. US plus postage
