The team’s two golden eras have been during the 1920’s, 30’s and late 40’s and again in the 1990’s until 2004. During this time the Red Wings achieved an incredible amount of division and conference titles besides their 10 memorable Stanley Cup victories.
Some of the Red Wings most honourable players are: Marty Barry, Herbie Lewis, Harry Lumley, Reg Noble, Earl Seibert, “Black” Jack Stewart and Syd Howe.
The team’s current Head Coach is the Canadian Mike Babcock who has leading the Red Wings since the 2005-06 campaign managing to achieve first place three times in a row. He holds a record of 410 games, 231 wins and 118 loses. |
