Duff discusses a ‘Habby’ start to the Wings’ 2022-2023 regular season

The Detroit Red Wings released their 2022-2023 regular season schedule yesterday afternoon…

And if you’re interested in the “ins and outs” thereof, Detroit Hockey Now’s Bob Duff took note of some of the special dates on the ’22-23 sked:

The Montreal Canadiens had already been in the NHL for a decade when the Detroit Red Wings – as the Detroit Cougars – came aboard for the 1926-27 season.
