The Detroit News
There hasn’t been playoff hockey in Detroit since the Red Wings’ first-round exit in 2016.
It’s been much longer since their epic rivalry against the Colorado Avalanche was must-see TV, as the most-heated rivalry in sports during the late 1990s and early 2000s.
ESPN is heating things up, releasing the trailer for its new special, “Unrivaled: Red Wings v. Avalanche.”
The trailer, which lasts 2 minutes, 20 seconds, is full of highlights and interviews with players from both teams, amping up the adrenaline for those who remember the bad blood and big hits from their rivalry.
