Tonight in Joe Lewis Arena, it’s game 1 of hockey’s fiercest rivalries.  Lest we forget, we’ve had everything in this rivalry; coaches yelling at each other, players going toe to toe, and a goalie fight.  What we have here, ladies and gentlemen, is a seven game battle royale between the Colorado Avalanche and the Detroit Red Wings.  What will this year’s playoff edition bring us?  Tonight this reporter will be watching and listening with baited breath to see what this edition brings us.
