New Red Wings Center Brad Richards tweeted this out:
Very Happy and honored to be wearing #17 for Wings after two other P.E. Islanders wore it. Forbe Kennedy and Gerard Gallant.

First of all, Gallant is one of this humble blogger’s favorite Wings of all time. So major points right off the bat for Richards’ homage. And the NHL released this today on their Twitter account.
