Detroit Red Wings players are sporting T-shirts reading “Sixty minutes of hell,” visual reminders of the mindset they want to have in games.
“It means hard to play against, making it hard for the other team,” Dylan Larkin said. “It’s a good model for us I think because we are capable of doing that with our speed up front and our defense.”
The shirts were the brainchild of coach Jeff Blashill, a variant on former Arkansas basketball coach Nolan Richardson’s ’40 minutes of Hell.
