If knowing how to win is a prerequisite to winning again, then the future of the Detroit Red Wings is in good hands.
The Grand Rapids Griffins, top farm club of the Red Wings, took care of business on Friday. They beat the Manitoba Moose 5-2 in Game 4 of their AHL Central Division semifinal. Wrapping up the best-of-five series by a 3-1 count, the Griffins are moving on in the Calder Cup playoffs.
Itâs a route that several Grand Rapids players have journeyed before. While itâs true that no Griffins player has a Calder Cup title on their resume, winning championships is something many on the Grand Rapids roster are familiar with achieving.
âItâs so fun to win,â Griffins defenseman Axel Sandin-Pellikka said. âIâve been in a winning team before and know itâs hard.â
Sandin-Pellikka and GR teammate Michael Brandsegg-Nygard were also teammates on Skellefteaâs 2023-24 Swedish Hockey League championship squad. They are among 10 Grand Rapids players whoâve won a title at the junior level or higher.
For the most part, hockey players will tell you they live in the moment. In this instance, past as a pretext is the preferable approach.
âOh, big value, big value,â Grand Rapids coach Dan Watson said of having a championship pedigree. âIf youâve won anywhere, you can bring something to the table and experience on the ice, off the ice, in the locker room, leadership-wise.
