Used to prolonged success, this feels epochal.
It is.
But it is also hockey, not the American Revolution. And, it all argues for staying the course.
The leaders of the ground-swelling “Lose for Hughes” campaign cannot complain if the Wings' losses pile high.
Losing is required, if a goal is to improve lottery odds enough for the Red Wings to have the best shot at Jack Hughes, who skates with some brilliance in Plymouth for the National Team Development Program (NTDP) of USA Hockey.
