Anyone else watch the ESPN documentary on the Red wings and Avalanche rivalry?

I thought it was really really well done. It was a fun watch especially if you lived through those years.

I did. Thought it was great. Fuck Claude LeMeuix!!

I haven't seen it yet, but I'm currently in Austin and there were some fucking idiots at the bar cheering when Colorado won yesterday. I'm excited to watch it.

My former professor was saying that he doesn't get why Wings fans don't like the Avs and were pulling for the Bolts yesterday. "It was 30 years ago." He was spouting off about how it was some manufactured rivalry for the Wings to sell tickets. Claude Lemieux started the whole thing, not the Wings. I basically told him that with him being a Pens fan, he shouldn't try to understand it.

When the Avs played against the Wings in the Western Conference semifinals in 2008, just a few players remained from those days. The Wings swept them in 4. 2002 was the last time there really was a rivalry between the two.
