We want the Cup!” The Griffins didn’t need a reminder of what was on the line, but a not-so-gentle suggestion from the fans certainly doesn’t hurt. In the end, the Griffins...

The Grind Line: Whom Should Red Wings Draft?

May 9th, 2017 The Detroit Red Wings have their first top-10 pick since 1991, after landing the No. 9 pick in last month’s draft lottery.
