1) My favorite Red Wings has to be Yzerman, no doubt!

2) Hasek has to be my one of my favorite players that joined the team.

3) The player I would love to see join the Red Wings would be Carey Price.

4) Has to be Federov & Hossa (Hossa cause I always wanted him as a Red Wing), Federov's move was really unclassy IMO. Leaving us to join the Ducks after the sweep.

5) Can't think of one but just to answer, it's probably Hudler with the cap he has.

[Ozzie30]

3) Shea Weber

4) Shanahan, only because it was completely unexpected.

5) Never wanted him on the team ... but eventually joined the team? No such players

[Jesusberg]

1) Who is your favorite Detroit Red Wing player overall to wear the Red Wings Logo? Yzerman overall, but I have to mention Zetterberg as my current favorite and right behind Stevie.

2) Who was your favorite Detroit Red Wing player that joined the red wings? (Non drafted by Wings, could be threw Trade / FA / Waiver etc...) Dan Cleary

3) Which current player would you dream of them joining the Wings? Drew Doughty

4) Which are the players that really "hurt / bugged" you when they left the Red Wings to join another team?
Shanny. It seemed like the ship was sinking and he just ran off to New York. I've always kinda felt that way about it.

5) Is there a player that you never wanted him on the team ... but eventually joined the team? Chelios for sure, but learned to love the guy.

[mjlegend]

1) Yzerman, no doubt.

2) Shanahan. I was kind of bummed that Coffey had to be part of the deal, but it turned out well.

3) Shea Weber.

4) Martin LaPointe. Larionov leaving also disappointed me.

5) Todd Gill/Larry Murphy/Bob Rouse. Rouse and Murphy worked out well. Still, the concept of getting ancient ex-Leafs defencemen never appealed to me. Also, I didn't think Hasek the second time around would ever work out but in a way, I suppose it did.

2. Hull
3. Kesler

McCarty left because the wings bought out his contract after the lockout.

[Shoreline]

1) Who is your favorite Detroit Red Wing player overall to wear the Red Wings Logo? Steve Yzerman -- it's going to be nigh impossible to supplant him as my favourite RW of all time

2) Who was your favorite Detroit Red Wing player that joined the red wings? (Non drafted by Wings, could be threw Trade / FA / Waiver etc...) Kris Draper/Kirk Maltby

3) Which current player would you dream of them joining the Wings? Milan Lucic, Vincent Lecavalier, Tobias Enstrom

4) Which are the players that really "hurt / bugged" you when they left the Red Wings to join another team? Sergei Fedorov -- the only departing Wing that annoyed me with his and his agent's antics upon doing so

5) Is there a player that you never wanted him on the team ... but eventually joined the team? Todd Bertuzzi, but I came around

5) Derian Hatcher. As useful as a screen door on a submarine.

To me this is a bit of monday morning quarterbacking. Just about nobody was opposed to him being on the team. Afterwards, yeah, things changed around when he got hurt and didn't ever play with the Wings to what standard everyone knew he played like with Dallas.

[Hockeytown_Ryan]

1) Who is your favorite Detroit Red Wing player overall to wear the Red Wings Logo? Nick Lidstrom/Steve Yzerman - Cant really pick between the 2

2) Who was your favorite Detroit Red Wing player that joined the red wings? Brett Hull He was huge in helping Dats and Zett

3) Which current player would you dream of them joining the Wings? Stamkos

4) Which are the players that really "hurt / bugged" you when they left the Red Wings to join another team? Hossa only because he went to Chicago. ( A Rival)

5) Is there a player that you never wanted him on the team ... but eventually joined the team? Uwe Krupp - just the fact he wore the uniform pissed me off!!!

1. Tomas Holmstrom
2. Chris Chelios
3. No idea
4. Sergei Fedorov. Regardless of whether you think he was at fault or the victim in leaving in 2004, he played a part in leaving (just like mgmt.) and it wasn't a good departure.
5. No idea

[puckloo39]

1) Who is your favorite Detroit Red Wing player overall to wear the Red Wings Logo? Nick Lidstrom Toss up with Stevie Y. Too easy.

2) Who was your favorite Detroit Red Wing player that joined the red wings? (Non drafted by Wings, could be through Trade / FA / Waiver etc...) Dominik Hasek, who else?

3) Which current player would you dream about joining the Wings? Probably Ovechkin. Can you imagine him and Datsyuk on the same team?

4) Which are the players that really "hurt / bugged" you when they left the Red Wings to join another team? Feds Shanny was a close second; I felt like he decided the Wings were not the same without Stevie and he bailed on us.

5) Is there a player that you never wanted him on the team ... but eventually joined the team? Hatcher I am sorry he ever signed in Detroit, to this day.
