A lot of talk this season has been centered on the race to the bottom for draft position, frustrations when you want to tank but also hate losing on principle, trade strategy, the number of empty seats night after night, anger at management, and other assorted frustrating topics.
In the midst of all this, I had the sudden realization that I forgot something. I forgot that being a Wings fan is fun. That the Red Wings are FUN. That these aren’t just a bunch of stats and contracts and potential draft picks, these are our Red Wings.
