The Detroit Red Wings are a professional ice hockey team located in Detroit, Michigan. Since the 1990's, the Red Wings
have been a force to be reckoned with in the NHL's Western Conference. They have set a standard of winning with their four
Stanley Cup championships over the span of eleven years and are wideley regarded as one of the best franchises in professional sports. Out
of strictly personal opinion, there is no professional sports franchise better than the Red Wings. The Wings organization drafts well, they scout well, and
players are literally willing to take a pay cut to play for them. Players know that when they come to Detroit to play for the wings,
they've joined a team that is committed to winning and will do anyting and everything to get a 'w'. With this attitude, it's no wonder why Detroit
is known as 'Hockeytown' by the rest of the NHL. The Red Wings have made the playoffs every season for the past 17 years, and the
streak does not look like it will be coming to an end any time soon. The reigning Stanley Cup champs are currently putting together
another championship calibre season, and are currently the NHL leader in points. The race for first place is tight this year
as the Wings are poised to make a run at the President's trophy for the most wins in the regular season once again. For your viewing pleasure,
I have posted below your 2008-2009 Detroit Red Wings roster, followed by the list of Stanley Cup Championship seasons.
