As a big Wings fan, watching this rivalry develop was an absolute treat. Such powerhouse teams, nobody else in the West even stood a chance for the better part of a decade.
I remember when Detroit won the Cup in 1997, the win against Colorado felt better than against the Flyers. You just knew that they weren't losing that Cup final. And that March 26th game started it all.
Such a great memory, I can't believe it's been 20 years...
