(Our apologies to the "Bennifer" and "Brangelina" camps for their…
In their inaugural year, the Vegas Golden Knights have provided the chief feel-good story this season, as they have registered the Western Conference’s best mark and rank behind only the Tampa Bay Lightning for league supremacy.

That has meant despising the New York Mets in cherishing the Philadelphia Phillies, loathing the Pittsburgh Penguins and New York Rangers in living and dying by the Flyers,…
Fans who stop by at the Joe Louis Arena will be able to pick up memorabilia and collectibles such as signed pucks, framed photos and team-related signage, as well as miscellaneous items from the Joe itself. These items include suite furniture, red folding chairs and pieces of the actual lockers used by countless players over the years...
