Hi folks, Nick here. Long-time WIIM reader, first-time WIIM writer-of-words.
I’m incredibly excited to join the wonderful team of contributors here at Winging It In Motown. It’s not hyperbole to say this is a dream opportunity for me. I’ve been following the Red Wings since... well... as long as I can remember following sports.
I was raised just south of Nashville by a pair of Michigan transplants, both loyal Wings fans. It just so happens that around the age I became more interested in the sports they had on their TV than the Thomas the Tank Engine playsets in my bedroom, a rag-tag group of hockey ruffians led by the likes of Steve Yzerman, Sergei Fedorov, and Vladimir Konstantinov happened to be getting a lot of play on the Morgan family television.
