Some video I shot while hanging out with former Detroit Red Wings strongman, Darren McCarty at PB's Sports Grille in St. Clair Shores, Mich.

McCarty was there to sign autographs on Nov. 28 and to talk about the March 26, 1997 Wings-Avalanche match-up that ended in one of the most memorable hockey brawls in the history of the National Hockey League. PB's replayed the entire game that night -- with a few obligatory brawl rewinds -- due to the 2012 lockout, which has prevented hockey lovers and Wing Nuts everywhere from watching their favorite teams.
