Define Detroit Red Wings Meaning

Good team whose stats are incredibly beefed up by the fact that they play in the Central Division which is easily the weakest in the Western Conference AND the NHL overall. 24 of their 82 games have been played this year against Columbus, St-Louis and Chicago. All of those teams are struggling like hell to get a win every 5-10 games. They're just no match for Detroit who gets all those free points with almost no effort. Despite all this, Detroit does indeed rock and is one of the better teams in the league. Still, if they played in a better division, they would have at least 30 less points or so.

One of the oldest teams in the NHL, they are widely considered one of the best teams in the NHL today, and that is is mostly true. However, now, they are mostly just a bunch of old guys (Chelios, take a hint you old useless douche) and need to stop getting their asses kicked by Colorado.

This team is possibly the most loved and hated team in the NHL, but their only hated because they have more Stanley Cups than any other American team. So anyone who thinks they suck or have cocky fans can shut their pathetic mouths because they obviously don't know true hockey. They've won 11 cups, and not to mention have been in the playoffs for 20 straight years. Wanna know how difficult that is? Ask Chicago.

Ten Time Stanley Cup Champion:

1936-37
1943
1950
1952
1954-55
1997-98
2002

A team that is well known for the " feast or famine " persona.

Has lost to the Western Conference Champion three times in a row:

Anaheim Mighty Ducks, 2003, Calgary Flames, 2004, Edmonton Oilers, 2006
All three times before reaching the 3rd Round.

The Red Wings have gone on to win the Stanley Cup every time since 1997 after reaching the Conference Finals.

Always a great Stanley Cup Contender.

An amazing fucking hockey team that hadnt not been to the playoffs in so long i dont remember and being one of the only good pro sports teams in michigan besides pistons back in like 04 and tigers every once and awhile to suddenly going to shit around 2016...#RipPlayoffStreak #RipDetroitProSports

the best team to ever play any sport. i cant remember the last time they missed the playoffs. they are better than any other 2 teams put together

The best hockey team ever. They could beat your sorry team anyday.

One of the great American hockey teams with 11 cups under their belt and 20 strait playoff runs, this is a prestigious team. Mostly hated due to butthurt newfriends, who are mad because their Chicago Blackhawks got beat by the Red Wings again, or because the Red Wings are at the top of the Central-Division and their team isn't.

They are better then your hockey team. Est 1926
Steve Yzerman, Gordie Howe, Nickolas Lidstrom, chris osgood

A NHL hockey team proven to be the best ever.

Perhaps the best american hockey team to win more cups then any other american can. they had 6, 1 Terry Sawchuk,
7 Ted Lindsay, 9 Gordie Howe, 10 Alex Delvecchio, 12 Sid Abel, and 19 Steve Yzerman. they have a 19 playoff streak
