The Sports Plus take
Adrian Dater covered the Avalanche through the Red Wings rivalry, and he tells the whole story: the brawls, the grudges, the playoff series and the general managers trying to one-up each other at every deadline. With around 20 future Hall of Famers between the two teams, it may have been the best rivalry in sports. Foreword by Scotty Bowman.
About this book
Book description
In Blood Feud, Colorado Avalanche beat writer Adrian Dater not only submits that the Red Wings-Avalanche rivalry was the most feverish match-up in recent years, but also that there was none better played. No fewer than twenty players have or will eventually make it to the Hall of Fame; the best scorers were matched up against the best goalies; brilliant coaches could be found on both benches; and two of the league's smartest general managers ruthlessly tried to one-up each other at every NHL trade deadline. Blood Feud is a rollicking story of a fierce, and often violent, rivalry.
