jim3033 1 Report post Posted March 23, 2008 (edited) They went on to win the Cup! 3 games to 2 against the Rangers in the finals. Yeah! EDIT: This made them back to back champions. --correction-- no it didn't Edited March 23, 2008 by jim3033 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
#19=Legend 29 Report post Posted March 23, 2008 They went on to win the Cup! 3 games to 2 against the Rangers in the finals. Yeah! EDIT: This made them back to back champions. On March 24, 1936, the Detroit Red Wings played an NHL Stanley Cup playoff game against the Montreal Maroons that combined 60 minutes of regulation play and 116 minutes, 30 seconds of overtime. Detroit won 1-0 and went on to win the series and its first Stanley Cup. It remains the longest game in NHL playoff history. That was their first, not their second of back to back.

Hockeytown Red Wings 245 Report post Posted March 23, 2008 How about march 26? Hint: If there are Wings fans here who don't know March 26,1997 by heart, then I would question how big of a Wings fan they are. Tomorrow is 11 years....wow, doesn't seem so long ago.

FireCaptain 563 Report post Posted March 26, 2008 This place cracks me up. Who are you (or anyone on here) to question "how much of a fan" someone is? There may be 50 fans that started liking Detroit yesterday and have NO IDEA of the history. They may be the greatest fans in the world, but you feel you have the right to question their "Fan-ness" because they may not know the minutia of every minute of the Wings' existence? Puh-leez. If there are Wings fans here who don't know March 26,1997 by heart, then I would question how big of a Wings fan they are. Tomorrow is 11 years....wow, doesn't seem so long ago. For the record, I do know what happened on the date in question, but the self-righteous attitudes around here piss me off. We're supposed to be "brothers and sisters" united by the common love of the greatest franchise in all of sports and yet people still have to try and feel superior to others for no apparent reason. /rant over Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
imisssergei 0 Report post Posted March 26, 2008 I get chills just thinking about it. What a game. We ordered pizza, it was delivered right after the all the rough stuff was stopped and the refs were sorting it out. The delivery guy stayed a few extra minutes to see what happened. What a night.
