The Red Wings


The Detroit Red Wings have a history of greatness. they are the greatest American team in the nhl. the red wings have won about 11 stanley cups. they have worked under geniuses such as Mike Babcock Scotty Bowman and Jacques Demers. Warriors have been coming out of that locker room since the Red Wings first took off, training pure talent like Steve Yzerman, Shanahan, Federov, Zetteberge and Datsyuk. their defence has always been good holding Uwe Krupp and and Chris Chelios. They barely let in goals thanks to Manny Legacy, Chris "The wizard of OZ" Osgood Dominic Hasek and coaching a new star Ty Conklin. they have beautiful shots and thier passing is precise and nearly perfect. another addition to the red wings are their strength and it isnt always a good thing. the red wings love to fight. they seem to enjoy themselves when they are throwing off their gloves. they get their gear off in a heartbeat and just tear up the other team in a fight. and when one fights they all fight. they have been known to start brawls with evan the golie getting involved.when ever the red wings are faced with a challange they always over come. this previous year they were on their way to the stanley cup. their were many key games that if lost would of cost them the cup. but they came together and if neccesary came from behing and won the game. another thing about thered wings is that the players dont play for the money. they play for the honor of being called a red wing. Henrik Zetteberg recently signed another 12 year deal for 73 million. in the sports industry i dont think that is conicidered a lot but they dont care they dont sign for the 73 million they sign for the 12 years. being a red wings show a lot of skill and honor to wear that logo is amazing. since the begining of the nhl the red wings were a part of the original 8 and they tore it up. their name is and always has been dipped in gold and on top they are the greatest.
