NIPS- LMAO! Yeah it seems like 2nd Round Town. Actually, it should be named "2nd Round Game 6 Town" for their 3 striaght Game 6, Round 2 outs.

It started before the 1996-97 season.

1996 with the release of the song.

For a period, the Red Wings would have a different song come out every year with the playoffs, this one just stuck.

When the NorthStars left Minnesota, and around that time Detroit got good, so everyone just started calling Detroit HockeyTown, when really that belongs to Warroad, MN, and State of Hockey belongs to Minnesota.

Hey Teal? Isnt San Jose the proud owner of the "2nd Round Town" Sorry... just felt like bashing the Sharks, cause now that you have a WING at the helm, you may actually get past the 2nd round.. unless you meet us before then.... Remember the Student (McLellan) always bows out to the Teacher (Babcock) LOL

I'm sorry to say it but it was the day that Detroit tried and tried to spell hockey dynasty and couldn't...

A dark day for the NHL...
