"Our old favorite industrial aid called sandpaper was not, alas, invented in Detroit by an independent engineer in the 19th century or somesuch, but instead comes down to us from possibly China of the 13th century, and looks to have been made of crushed seashells and the like bonded to parchment paper. Red Wings fans who've watched the last several games against Ottawa would probably accept crushed seashells glued to paper over the more modern abrasives, as long as they were effective against the aggressive Sens, who seem to be able to manhandle the Wings as if they were made of parchment. As the Wings look to have the sandpaper to catch up with their bullying rivals, look to a very coarse grit for the evening."
