Welcome back to the Michigan Insider on the Big 1050 WTCA online at the big 1050.com. We've got Eric Adelson joining us here on the phone. It's me and my guy Miz on the other side of the glass, Sam as on Family Assignment for the week. EA, I said we're going to get to NFL next and I'm going to say that again because there was actually during our conversation in the first half of the hour, there was breaking news from down east of us from Little Caesar's Arena area from probably Little Caesar's headquarters, really.

I would assume so. of the hour. There was breaking news from down east of us from Little Caesar's Arena area from

probably Little Caesar's headquarters, really.

I would assume so.

And they have announced that they are going to finally, my word finally, not theirs,

finally retire, the number 91, 91 for Sergey Federoff is going into the rafters.

They announced that's going to happen January 12,

which against Carolina Hurkins.

I thought it was great.

And then I realized that that's also a wildcard Monday,

the NFL playoffs, so it's kind of not great.

But it's really cool that 91's finally getting his number retired long overdue.

Your thoughts on 91, going to the Raptors at LCA.

Yeah, I mean, it makes me a little bit of emotional uh emotional uh to hear that it's wonderful it's well deserved uh i i credit miss

miss working means that we're going to talk about hockey um so so thanks miss for working this

morning um i don't know if this generation

fully understands what Sergei Fedorov meant to the entire franchise. He came over. It was a

very difficult, dangerous time for a Russian player to come over, especially a Russian player

that good.

And he played such a unique style that he could play really any position and excel.

He skated so beautifully, but he could have played defense too and been just as good.

He could have been like another body or if that's what his position would be.
