The Red Wings have always taken an interest in the stars of college hockey,
much more than other NHL teams IMHO. Glens Falls always seems to have a couple
of kids from the colleges in their line-up, and this year is no exception
(their leading scorer was a Badger.) And of course back in 1985 they made
those three big signings of college free agents: Ray Stayzk (sp) from Illinois-
Chicago Circle, Dale Krentz from (M-State? someone help me out) and Adam Oates
from RPI.
