12 HOF playing in this game. That Devils roster was loaded with big names too

[@dannythomas417]

Let's not forget Shanahan began his career as a Devil. He once played with the Marauder of Motor City, Claude Lemieux.

[@scottdecker9115]

Indeed. Scott Stevens, Doug Gilmour, Scott Niedermayer, Dave Andreychuk, Martin Brodeur (who I actually got to meet by the way). That team WAS loaded and stacked with a bunch of great studs and Hall of Famers.

[@dftns19]

The quality of this video is pretty amazing actually

[@MSU-DetroitFan]

Darren McCarty The Enforcer #LGRW (RIP GOAT Mr Hockey and Budd Lynch)

[@oldredbarnman]

Doug Brown was the consumate role player. He'd sit out a few games, and seemed to always score when he was put back in. Had some big goals as a Wing.

[@drummerwes81]

Awood, as always, thank you so very much for these videos. They are keeping my spirits high during all this covid nonsense and are definitely a welcomed distraction. I get so excited when I see the new vid notification and have some hockey to look forward to watching. Keep up the great work, my dood- it's greatly appreciated.

[@nrmproductions1150]

Lidstrom finished 2nd in the Norris voting to Rob Blake even though he had far better defensive numbers and led all D-men in points. Could easily have 9 or 10 if the voters weren’t so weird in the late 90ds

[@ericduncan7908]

He was European and he finished his career with approximately half the head trauma Blake would(grit smh). These were legitimate factors with the voters during the 90s. Not sure when exactly it changed but I dont recall it being much of a factor at all a decade later when the Wings were back to play Crosby.

[@timdecoursey287]

He was probably too European for the Norris back then.

[@vince4871]

They didn't want a European passing up Orr!

[@michaellaughlin8457]

man got the same feeling when i was watching this game in real time! thanks awood for posting these games! 🤗👍

[@terryabeare7147]

I believe Detroit should have retired #14. Shanny spent about 10 great years, 3 Stanley Cups. Without him, i don't believe we win back to back cups.

[@mgtowdadYouTubeSucksCoxks]

I am not sure I agree, but I definitely do not disagree.

[@danglesnipecelly13]

DOUGIE!! What a Boston beauty

[@gregory06]

14:26 - New Jersey hat thrown on the ice for Doug Brown! haha

[@norwoodkubisiak7996]

what a game, all around

[@natebellville3621]

3:08 'Bad to the Bone' playing while McCarty and Shanny fought NJ seemed so perfect.

[@fogdan]

I Love These. Thanks for posting!!

[@BWyatt76]

Get video, great memories. Love it! Keep them coming dude!

[@Jim-yh5uj]

Back when hockey was awesome.

[@awood40]

The Red Wings were still entertaining, the rest of the league was not at this point.

[@karlheinzvonkroemann2217]

Before the salary CAP in 2009!

[@robcole3581]

Bud lynch goodie a bunch of fights great win for the boys . Gotta love Mickey Redmond

[@dannybaum3874]

Holy hell what a game

[@81OH4Z4RD]

Man i hated NJ. Brodeur was admittedly great but Ozzy plain hulked out at the end of this one. And dang, that 2nd Lidstrom goal was like a clinic from the moment he retrieved the puck. Great game thanks a million awood.

[@lotswifemusic9965]

Doug Brown scoring on one knee, His signature shot!

[@Tubewings]

4:08; A little "Look Sharp March" from Mickey Redmond.

[@cookingwithunclemike831]

This was a random game in December but it felt like a playoff game. Man have times changed in the NHL.

[@Michael-xe6ze]

The good old days when the players played with intensity, heart, and passion. Watching what bettman has done to the NHL is extremely sad.

[@karlheinzvonkroemann2217]

The NHL like every other sport got corrupted by $$$$$ and got way too political,

[@scottdecker9115]

Doug Brown with a hat-trick!!! :-)

[@karlheinzvonkroemann2217]

Off Brodeur no less!

[@violentshemp7776]

what a great game! thx woody

[@hardcoreromeo2111]

Jesus Gordies got some mitts for hands

[@WolfpackJT]

What a game

[@scottdecker9115]

I think this was the only hat trick Doug Brown ever got in his career. Well, he definitely had one to remember, and against his former team as well!

[@scottmelton3429]

Please take me back to that time.

[@SolamenteVees]

Doug Brown played so well with the Russians, he once skated in warm ups with the name Brownov on his sweater...

[@Sky-Goldberg]

Где Фетисов и Федоров ?

[@nahnyabuhizniz4542]

hearing Bud Lynch's voice.... get me some tissues

[@jacoblamb3535]

2 wagons

[@IntoTheWildFlyFishing]

Lapointe. "I can bench over 400 pounds" Also Lapointe. "I only fight lesser middleweights and non fighters." JLA crowds > LCA crowds... by far!

[@stevemineer2857]

Osgood got hit by Murphy at the end.

[@bradstrouse8685]

Off course stevens isnt a fighter. He was just king of the cheap shots

[@JamesCook-u9h]

Whats with Red wingg fans always coming and going during play?

[@stinkfinger630]

“Steven’s, who’s not known as a fighter “. What? He was one of the toughest guys of his era! Fought all the tough guys. Garbage comment.

[@samtodd6301]

Stevens lost every fight he fought.

[@CapnDiddles]

He wasnt known as a fighter and no he didnt fight all the tough guys. he cheap shot all the tough guys from behind while they werent looking and when he did fight he got the snot beat out of him just like in this fight with McCarty. He was known for throwing big hits and again most of them were super dirty. Hes more of a "pest" or "agitator" who also just happened to be huge

[@vince4871]

If not for Brodeur this game would have been 10-4

[@ddarrenturner]

Odelein was worthless
