Imagine yourself in the following scenario:
You live in Detroit and have been a Red Wings fan your entire life. As an established Original Six team, you’re well versed in all of their history and legends. You’ve seen some of their success first hand. If you’re an older fan, you’ve seen legends like Gordie Howe glide across the ice at Joe Louis Arena.
However, success has not been as easy to come by in recent years. Old talent has begun to age out. Despite having some talented newcomers, the team doesn’t have cohesion.
