Blood Feud: Detroit Red Wings V. Colorado Avalanche: The Inside Story of Pro Sports Nastiest and Best Rivalry of Its Era Dater Adrian Paperback

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. Blood Feud is a rollicking story of a fierce, and often violent, rivalry. 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.
