The Red Wings and Ducks don’t exactly have the reputation of exciting teams. In fact both are among the worst offensive teams in the league. So this game wasn’t expected to be a barn-burner. You’d have to be heavily invested in either of these teams to sit though the first 2 periods. The First 40…
Back in August this was no doubt the Jack Hughes draft. But that has changed. Finland’s Kaapo Kakko has emerged as a true challenger to the American center. Hughes remains on top but I have never been closer on the two then I am right now. I can certainly see things changing as well. While…
