What a way to celebrate Danny DeKeyser’s 500th game. It feels unreal that he’s played 500 games, and even less real that he would have hit that a long time ago had he been healthier. He can take his knocks around here, but what a way to celebrate a guy who has been a Red Wing for 10 seasons now.

First Period

Game started more or less with a tripping penalty against Nick Leddy. Not exactly the most egregious trip you’ve ever seen, but I’m not going to get too upset about it. Most exciting part of it was actually a Red Wings fast-break, but y’know how it goes, your team gets the puck with a mismatch on the penalty kill and your Danny DeKeyser fires it into the defender’s skates.
