Mannino Continues To Shuttle Between NHL & AHL

(above) DU hockey fan Jim Glabman was able to snap this picture of Peter Mannino holding his Boone themed goaltender mask last week in Portland, Maine

Peter Mannino has spent the last couple of weeks backing up New York Islanders goaltender Yann Danis in the NHL and starting for the Bridgeport Sound in the AHL. On Thurday night, Mannino was on the bench for the Islanders in a 5-4 victory over the Atlanta Thrashers.

DU Alum Jim Glabman spoke to Mannino last week and reports that he still follows the "Boone Movement" and is passionate about the cause.

We agree, "Bring Back Boone."

Good to see Mannino doing well. For him to be the starting goalie in the AHL and playing backup in the NHL in his first season is such a feat to accomplish.

DAMN THE AVS! I said so many times they need to pick him up! He showed interest in the team and they didn't!
