DETROIT The hockey at the Winter Cla sic alumni games isn't greatit exists for nostalgia and for memories, and that's fine. If you walk away with one cool moment stowed away, they've done their job.Tuesday at Comerica Park, Red Berenson delivered. If there was One Cool Moment in the first game between the Detroit Red Wings and Toronto Maple Leafs, it was Berenson74 years Yan Gomes Jersey old and known more these decades as the coach at the University of Michigan than an All-Star captain for the Red Wingswinning a key face-off in the last seconds on Detroit's 5-4 win.MORE: "The last faceoff was hugely impre sive how hard he was on the puck," Toronto's Brad Marsh said. "He just clamped right down."It wasn't just about the win, though. Berenson was clearly coaching up the other guys on the ice. It was, in a word, cool. He downplayed that part of it, which wasn't surprising, but it's his job, and he does it better than anyone."No. No. Maybe because my head is into itI'm doing this every day as Brad Hand Jersey a coach. Neverthele s, Scotty (Bowman) put me out there, and good. He knew I could figure it out and not screw it up," Berenson said."We talked about what we're gonna dojust old-time hockey. I'm gonna tie up the other centerman and Jiri's gonna come in and get the puck, and then we're either gonna wheel it around or chip it out the short side. So we had it figured out."Jiri is Jiri Fischer, who, at 33, could conceivably be Berenson's grandson. "He's only 40 years younger," Berenson joked. Fischer, Tyler Clippard Jersey who retired at 25 because of a heart i sue and is currently Detroit's director of player development, arrived at the podium a littler after Berenson spoke. He promptly blew his spot."Red Berenson, being the greatest coach in college hockey he is, he had a game plan. He was out there (and) he huddled Yonder Alonso Jersey us all together. Am I putting Red on the spot here?" Fischer said. Berenson let him know with a laugh that he'd already said his part."So this is Take II," Fischer said. "He basically told us what to do, and unfortunately we didn't execute how he mastered the plan, but we kept the puck out of the net."The Maple Leafs, naturally, came away impre sed with the "senior citizen," to use his own phrase. "He's my new idol," Stew Gavin said. And, naturally, he had a cool, reasonable take on the situation."Those guys (in the alumni games), they take it easy. Let's face it," Berenson said. "They're not running over each other. This is Mike Napoli Jersey pond hockey, and they're taking it easy. It got a little more intense the last couple of minutes, but everybody had a good time."Indeed. And that's all anyone can ask for.
