Before their first home game following the passing of owner Mike Ilitch this past February, the Detroit Red Wings honored his legacy with a touching video tribute.
In addition to special jersey patches and “Mr. I” written onto the ice surface, a moment of silence were among the celebrations of Mr. I’s life. Watch it here:
