Jason Dawson+FollowDetroit’s hockey heartbreak: Red Wings in the EastDetroit fans still remember when the Red Wings were the NHL’s gold standard—Stanley Cups, division titles, and playoff runs were just part of the routine.

The nostalgia for those gritty, star-studded Western teams is real, and you can’t help but wonder if a shift back West could revive that old magic. What do you think—is it the conference, the competition, or just a tough rebuild? #Sports #IceHockey #DetroitRedWings00Share
