Detroit Red Wings

The 19-year-old Michigan State University student who died after Thursday night's Red Wings game Hockey Game at the Joe Louis Arena has been identified as Ryan Rosman of West Bloomfield.

Don't look now but the Red Wings, on a three-game winning streak, are one point behind the Columbus Blue Jackets in the Central Division.

GRAND RAPIDS -- Former Red Wings defenseman Chris Chelios travels to hockey arenas on buses these days instead of a private jet. And he stays in hotels geared for traveling businessmen, not the resorts and five-star accommodations that the Wings are known for staying at.

A 19-year-old Michigan State University student leaving a Red Wings hockey game with friends Thursday night was dragged more than a quarter-mile under a car and killed, police said.
