Avs to entertain Red Wings as Patrick Roy looks for record-setting win
rest - http://www.denverpost.com/avalanche/...y-looks-recordNathan MacKinnon wasn't even born when the famous rivalry with the Avalanche and Detroit Red Wings began, so while he's aware of it, that's only because of technology.
"It's fun to look at clips on YouTube and stuff like that," the 18-year-old Avs rookie said. "It looked like it was pretty intense."
It was. But retirements, time and the Avs' slippage of the past few years have dimmed the rivalry that once was appointment viewing for the whole hockey world and beyond.

Hey hockey people, did McLeod deserve to be kicked out for that?

Mike Haynes on the call, seething hatred of the Red Wings, and wondering if at any point Patrick Roy will do something completely crazy.
It's like 1997 never left.

I might just be a homer, but I don't think so. It's sort of like when a WR drops their head and then gets annihilated by a safety by a helmet to helmet hit. I don't think McLeod's intent was malicious because Kronwall kind of reversed direction at the last minute. I think a major penalty was sufficient... I don't think he was head hunting, just trying to play physical in the corner.

After watching the hit on super slow mo Kronwall turned last second and led with his head back into the hit. I don't know what 55 could do.
