The Detroit Red Wings and their fans have enjoyed their fair share of success and memorable moments over the last quarter-century of competition in the NHL. Personally, I’d be lying if I said I didn’t periodically re-watch videos of the infamous brawl against Colorado in ‘97, or when Yzerman handed the Stanley Cup to Vladdy a year later, or one of the numerous Pavel Datsyuk highlight reels available on YouTube from time to time.
While reminiscing of glory days gone by à la Uncle Rico may not be healthy in large doses, there’s certainly nothing wrong with looking back in remembrance of happier times.
