Sad to see the passing of a great man in the sports world. Mike Ilitch was the type of owner that sports fans around the world would die to have own their favourite team(s). As owner of the Red Wings and Tigers in Detroit, he put a lot of time and effort into making those two franchises always relevant in their respective sports and always contenders. He was also a great patron for the often downtrodden City of Detroit. He was planning to open a new hockey arena there next season.
My thoughts and prayers to his family and many friends and admirers in North American sports.
