NHL's '100 Greatest Players' is reminder Sergei Fedorov's No. 91 is not retired by Red Wings

DETROIT – There are Detroit Red Wings fans on both sides of the issue. 

Some say Sergei Fedorov's No. 91 should have been hanging from the Joe Louis Arena rafters years ago while others say he doesn't deserve it.

Unless there is some surprise ceremony planned in the coming weeks, No. 91 never will be hanging from those blue rafters above the ice on which Fedorov dazzled so many hockey fans. 

I wrote about this in 2015 when he was inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame (read here).

Story: Fedorov is in Hall of Fame; time for Red Wings to retire No. 91?

He was recently named among the NHL's top 100 greatest modern-era players.

Here's the tribute video -- you decide (be sure to take the poll below the video):
