THRASHING ABOUT TOWN: TEAM RELEASES TICKET PRICE DETAILS

          NHL expansion Thrashers Exec VP Dave Maggard said the
     team has received more than 8,700 deposits for season
     tickets.  The deadline to join the Thrashers Blue Line Club
     to reserve season tickets for the team's inaugural '99-2000
     season is April 25.  In early May, the team will begin
     converting season tickets for Blue Line Club members, who
     have received a priority seating number in exchange for
     their $100 deposit.  In addition, the team expects an
     average ticket price of approximately $45, with more than
     50% priced at or below that number.  Twenty-five percent of
     the seats will be available for $24 or less, with the lowest
     price for an unobstructed view seat being $10 (Thrashers).
