The pre-game show tonight was dominated by a remembrance of Mike Ilitch, as well it should have been. John Keating and Chris Osgood started off the show with an in-studio segment, then segue’d to interviews with Red Wings players about their memories of Mr. I.
If you didn’t get a chance to see the pre-game show, and you can go back and watch it, you really should.
And I really want to know who decided that a Papa John’s ad during the pre-game was a good idea.
So we’re starting today’s game on a somber note, as is fitting.
