On Tuesday night, Konstantinov was at Little Caesars Arena and when he was shown on the big screen, he received a loud ovation from the Red Wings fans in attendance.
Vladimir Konstantinov at Little Caesars Arena tonight. Robbed of his career in 1997 at age 30, turns 53 next month. One of the best. pic.twitter.com/3HxjpVRmNX
