🔒 The Detroit Red Wings once played a hockey game in a maximum security prison against the inmates. In February 1954, legends like Gordie Howe, Ted Lindsay, and Terry Sawchuk faced the "Prison Pirates" at Marquette Branch Prison. The Wings took an 18-0 lead in the first period before they stopped keeping score and began swapping players. For a trophy, they were awarded the "Doniker Trophy"—a galvanized steel toilet bucket. Two months later, the Wings went on to win the Stanley Cup. #detroitredw
