Three things:

1. It really sucks seeing DGB on ESPN's main site. Just feels dirty somehow. I hope somehow he wrests free of them and gets with Puck Daddy or someone, maybe SB Nation, I don't know.

2. The Red Wings reference is dead-on. I don't want to quote it because you really need to read the whole article. But it's pretty hilarious how many players have either ended their careers in Detroit or Arizona/Phoenix. Watching Modano and Alfredsson play out the string in Red Wings sweaters was pretty awful. I'm fairly certain that Stephen Weiss effectively played the last NHL games of his NHL career in Detroit as well. Guess we'll see with Brad Richards.

3. Those black horsehead Calgary jerseys were far, FAR worse than I remember.

I remember a couple of years back, landing on Ken Wreggett's hockeydb page and thinking "What the fuck? He played for the Wings"?
