Kaner getting it done while in the Winged wheel is a treat, but Wings fans were robbed of having Ken Daniels to call the moment…88 would agree

Lucas Raymond is very good and this coming out party is nothing short of a warning shot across the bow of the rest of the league that dude is about to go off next season and perhaps later in this one should they qualify.
Unbelievable play by 88
2-0 RED WINGS!!!!! What a finish by Kane on this one. This one is great evidence the Wings are awake today and the Sabres are not. #LGRW

The Red Wings’ octopus-throwing dates back to April 1952. Detroit won the Stanley Cup that year, and the tradition was born.
Now, in the thick of the playoff race, fans hope It keeps happening.
@m_bultman on the oceanic origins of the practice and its return.
Awesome article as always by @m_bultman, must read for Wings fans interested in becoming part of the “Octopi Tossing circle”. It will be something I’ll remember forever. Thank you to Max for making the experience that much cooler #LGRW
The Red Wings are in a playoff hunt for the first time in a long time. And that return to relevance has meant the resurgence of a beloved, eight-tentacled tradition.

Need a replay of that Perron shot, looked like a funny bounce if it went off iron and stayed out
