I just want to pause here and acknowledge how much fun Gary Thorne is. I hope he calls hockey again sometime. He just sounds like he’s having a ball. Or puck.
Not bringing him back was a terrible mistake. I don't care that he's in his 70's. He has far more passion and energy than Sean McDonagh, who has the personality of burnt toast. And for a whole generation of Americans, his was THE voice of hockey.
I used to be a huge Thorne fan back in the late 80’s through the early 90’s. But then he started making himself bigger than the games he was calling, with his excessive and unprofessional screaming after a big play happened. I’m not saying that it was necessarily intentional, but it but it was enough to make him intolerable for me.
Datsyuk has the best hands the NHL has ever seen. Hands down (pun intended). There are a lot of guys that can dangle. Kane, Johnny Hockey, Giroux.... just none of them could do it during this era. The era where you get your head knocked off if you try skating up the middle. He could do that. The other guys would've gotten blown up back then.
This made my night....thanks to the person that put it up....boy were we spoiled....we lived for playoff hockey in Detroit...praying Stevie can bring it back !!!!
This game showed how loaded the Wings where since you look how empty the bench was during the last fight yet they still have Elite players to spare both on the ice, bench and box
The days when Detroit could take a double minor and a boarding and yiu didnt have to worry about it, now Detroit goes on a power play and I get a bit worried lol
My god i was a freshman in high school, the prime up and coming of my hockey career growing up in Detroit metro area. What a gift it was to grow up going to see these guys live. How could you not just hate or love us
As a native St Louisan and passionate Blues fan, it was salt in a gaping wound seeing Hull net the hat trick in that game, though not quite as his overtime Cup winning goal when he was with Dallas. 😢
Honestly DET was a HOF team. Such a gift to have the talent we did and got to watch. Fedorov, Larionov, Datsyuk, Zeds, Lidstrom, hommer, Shanny, Chelios, B.Hall, Draper, Maltby, Yzerman, Luc Robitaille, Cujo, Many legacy!!!!! Like it goes on... we had fkin Sean Avery LMAOOOO
1. I miss Gary Thorne 2. Players on the ice in this game: Hull Macinnis Lidstrom Pronger Chelios Federov Shanahan Zetterberg Datsyuk Schnieder Weight Larionov Unbe-fucking-lievable.
Thank you for this one. Remember this (insane) game like yesterday. There were some clips out there but not this much. Hull's 3rd goal...my god. I loved watching him play those 3 years here.
Детройт это была действительно команда. Не прощая не кому ошибок. Там были игроки легенды. От бога ребята. На кого не посмотри все вытвопяли чудеса. Не было слабых мест у этой команды. А сейчас даже смотреть противно нынешний нхл. Играют как дети. НЕТ СИЛОВОЙ БОРЬБЫ. Звёзд нет. Раньше действительно были звезды. В каждой команде были звезды. Снайперы бойцы были охраняли партнёров. Какие именна были. Куда не посмотри звезды. Они ушли и все нхл не стало. Такого как раньше уже не будет. Жаль.
Everything changes. The players, the coach, the cable company and the availability of games on the package you pay for, the rivalries. You name it. It will never be the same. What a great time to be a wings fan.
What a game. Hatty for Hull. Datsyuk with 1g 3a. 239 minutes of penalties with 219 of those coming in the 3rd period. And I think this Pronger’s first game back after tearing his ACL when he tried to run Stevie & Stevie ducked it, and Pronger ended up awkwardly making contact/tearing up his knee. Lesson: Don’t f**k with Stevie!
8:09 gets me in the feels a few ways. In the middle of this brutal bruise-fest, the freeze frame of Shanny's face is reaction of a genuine mistake, and then his regret on the bench is nonverbally saying "damn, I hope is okay. where's my penalty?" I remember watching this live with my dad wondering how we got away with no penalty. Now I wonder how I took such high-caliber hockey for granted; despite being a Wings fan at age 7, I knew that the no-call HAD to be answered for somehow...and that dad definitely hated Pronger for SOME reason. Spectacular game. TY for the upload!
Great skills at display here. Datsyuk and Zetterberg skating around slow goons like Pronger. Shots by Lidström and Fedorov right in the top corners. And, finally, the most talented, underrated and impressive player of all time has to be Tomas Holmström. He has to be the most cross-checked player in NHL history. I can skate and handle, so I am not that impressed with stick skills, but I could never, in a million years, take to beating without retaliating like Holmström. I am so impressed by this ability to keep calm. To me, Holmström belongs in the HoF for this, along with his mastery of screening the goalie.
No question about the skill level of the players on that Wings team. Calling a first ballot Hall of Famer like Pronger a goon, however, defines credulity.
@@djzarrick Perhaps, goon is a bit harsh. Brute might be a better word. Pronger was slow, and used his size and strength (often with unlegal means). Hacking and slashing a lot when he couldn't skate as fast as the forwards. He played during the cluch-and-grab or wrestling era of hockey. I guess that different people have different view of the game. I like speed and skilll. Hacking, slashing, grabbing etc - not so much...
Considering how awful the Wings have been playing now, it felt good watching the great team that they had then. The Blues sure gooned it up that game, to no avail. What a game!
Although they can play decent sometimes! Take their win against the Bolts last night. We are missing Ned and Larking. We should've bombed that game, but somehow we beat the consecutive Stanley cup winner. This gives me a little hope that the Wings might be coming back to a more respectable standard.
Videos like this make me happy that I'm a Wings fan and got to watch players with skill, not just a bunch of hacks. To this day I still can't fathom that Jackman beat Zetterberg for the Calder
Look at this 5v3 vs what we run now. Their 5v3 was better than us now on 5v4. Look at all those defensively responsible, hang back players.. 😏. Tenacious, someone always applying pressure to the puck and knowing when to let someone else take the lead and fall back. They were just a super competitive team. All monopoly board flippers for sure.
@@MrClebophd you have to be retired for 3 years to be eligible to be nominated for the Hall of Fame, Zetterberg though his last game was in 2018, his contract didnt end until the 2020-2021 season, he'll be eligible for the Hall of Fame in 2024, but because they only induct 2 players, a builder, and recently a female or minority it could be a minute before he's up.
Legendary season despite the finish. When you've got Yzerman out with injury for more than 2/3 of the season and your team still leads the NHL in scoring ... wow.
@@Yochillitsthatserious yeah, now in the salary cap era we see that the wings can't compete anymore. It's only quality organizations like pittsburgh or TB that can go back to back
М-да, раньше хоккей был просто бескомпромиссный,хотя и грязи было на порядок больше!Но не даром ведь трус не играет в хоккей!!!👏👏👏🇷🇺Ну Паша Волшебник на все времена!!!
I don’t know if we’ll ever see the likes of the old Blues-Blackhawks, Blues-Redwings, Redwings-Avalanche, et al rivalries again. I sure hope I’m wrong, though.
Ahh the days where we had a Rivalry with the Blues one of the many Rivalries killed when we moved to the Eastern Conference (We went from hating the Avalanche Blues Stars Blackhawks and even the Ducks and Sharks now it's the Lightning Maple Leafs Bruins and Penguins
Staying up until 2am on week days watching the Wings play west coast playoff games was brutal. Give me the good old Norris division any day. Blues, North Stars, Blackhawks and Maple Leafs rivalries were awesome.
playoffs add to rivalries, Detroit just hasn't been as good to get that deep seeded hatred, but once they are I'm sure Bruins and Maple Leafs and Canadians will be just just as hated as Blues and Blackhawks
And the Kings, Flames and Oilers were hated rivals as well. Now it's the Leafs, Canadiens, Bruins, Sabres, Blue Jackets, Rangers, Penguins, Capitals and both Florida teams.
I still wish the redwings where still over here with the Blues. I hated losing to them but man the games where fun. However I am sory you have to play the cheating ass Tampa Bay.
I remember this game blues waited untill Detroit's tough guy's were gone then pick on Detroit little guy's because the blues were a bunch of cry babies and we're scared of Detroit's tough
I do not know what game you watched but the blues where never afraid of getting into a fight. I think you might be watching another team and thought it was the blues. We where known for playing a more physical game as we were not a team that scored alot of goals like detroit.
Yzerman Shanahan Hasek Fedorov Larionov Chelios Datsyuk Zetterberg Draper Holmstrom Lidstrom Robataille And i bet you im forgetting a handful of hall of farmers lol
Been looking for the Wings game vs Predators in Nashville quite a few years back. Had I think 9 fights and Yzerman went after one of the refs and got kicked outta the game for arguing about a phantom penalty on Lidstrom. Might have been around 2003.
I remember watching that game. It was HOT on the ice that day. Blue usually gooned it up against the red wings since they were always the wings whipping boy during that time. The mix of players that played for both teams here is pretty interesting. Hull and shanahan played for the blues, osgood and drake played for the wings. That Hank, Pav, Hull line was unbelievable. The whole time they were together they had amazing chemistry. Obviously Z and Dats kept that going after Hull retired.
Hockey so much better to watch back then. Teams really disliked each other. As a blues fan, I hated Detroit because they would simply toy with the blues
"Но в этих сшибках удалых Забавы много, толку мало; Прохладным вечером, бывало, Мы любовалися на них, Без кровожадного волненья, Как на трагический балет; Зато видал я представленья, Каких у вас на сцене нет..."
The Blues team was a bunch hacks completely outclassed at every position by the Wings. Even Osgood was as effective as a wet bag with these numbskulls playing in front of him.
They where not hacks lol. Doug Weight, Al McCinnis, Chris Pronger. To name a few. Yes outclassed but with the roster detroit had everyone was outclassed. We where just a physical team that tried to win by attrition. Just like the 2019 Blues. Now you look and the Blues are playing alot like detroit in these days.
I really miss this hockey, goals, goonery, fast. It felt real, it was exciting. Now, it just seems sterile, even the "brawling" seems like, meh. I watch a game every now n then but it's simply background noise.
I just want to pause here and acknowledge how much fun Gary Thorne is. I hope he calls hockey again sometime. He just sounds like he’s having a ball. Or puck.
For those too young to know.... yes. ESPN please - yes. Instead of the group of hacks you have now....
100 him and clement were the best duo and now you have this hextall chick who screws up everything. She horrible anyone but her! Espn get it together!
He is the best. Hands down.
Not bringing him back was a terrible mistake. I don't care that he's in his 70's. He has far more passion and energy than Sean McDonagh, who has the personality of burnt toast.

THIS is old time hockey. This is the NHL I grew up with. Fking passion from EVERYBODY! I can't believe this wasn't even a playoff game!
Wow, just wow! Just watch how incredibly hard hitting and violent this entire game was. I miss this.
The type of game that brings out the hockey player in you!!!
When Hockey was great to watch.
Loved this Detroit lineup. You can see why Hull loved playing with Zetterberg and Datsyuk.
P.Datsyuk's 2nd goal is simply a masterpiece!) Bravo!

Having the Euro Twins was a blessing... but Lidstrom, too? Priceless.
and HOF Brett Hull on the same line? seems fair
Hull, datsyuk and zetterberg having 78 points in 23 games..🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
As a native St Louisan and passionate Blues fan, it was salt in a gaping wound seeing Hull net the hat trick in that game, though not quite as his overtime Cup winning goal when he was with Dallas. 😢

I was at this game! It was the second straight game I went to where Brett Hull scored a hat trick against the blues! The other was 1/26/2002 😄
Very cool
Thanks for the highlights, after the last few games we needed this
That fan at 16:03 thinking he was doing something 🤣
Joey Kocur throwing a chair on the ice..lol...the good ole days.

What about one of the best Netminders ever Chris Osgood, also Drapper and Maltby . It's a who's who's of greats 😃😃😃
Zetteburg got robbed the rookie of the year that year
Thank you for this one. Remember this (insane) game like yesterday. There were some clips out there but not this much.
Hull's 3rd goal...my god. I loved watching him play those 3 years here.
Detroit was so unstoppable you could see the Blues playing like it’s game 7 of the Cup and the Wings just scored at will.
The Red Wings got swept in the first round of the playoffs this year LMFAO
The thing that makes me feel old watching this video: The NHL 2K3 banner on the boards

Hockey so much better to watch back then. Teams really disliked each other. As a blues fan, I hated Detroit because they would simply toy with the blues
The rivalry play was better but hockey from 97-04 was becoming an absolute borefest e.g Dallas, Minnesota
If Bobby Probert would've played in this game, he would have beat the hell outta the entire St. Louis bench. RIP Probie. You are missed.
03 was year i was born :)
I laughed a little at Pronger in the powerplay when he tried to shoot like his "pal" McIinnis, didn't even think about an assist😆
Give Koshur skates! He'll lay the floor of St. Louis))

They where not hacks lol. Doug Weight, Al McCinnis, Chris Pronger. To name a few. Yes outclassed but with the roster detroit had everyone was outclassed. We where just a physical team that tried to win by attrition. Just like the 2019 Blues. Now you look and the Blues are playing alot like detroit in these days.
Very memorable game.
