Found this story on Bleacher Report today..don't think its been posted..good read..hard to disagree with any of them. I think the drafting of Lidstrom should be on there somewhere.

Should be on the slide talking about Bowman bringing a defensive mindset to the team. Lidstrom was integral to that moving forward.

I would agree with GoWings1905, the brawl game should be included, as well as the Shanahan trade, and even putting more attention on the finding and signing of Gordie Howe. I would probably leave off when they moved to Detroit and changing of the team name, those aren't fun to read about.
It would be interesting to try and rank Red Wings moments from 10-1.

I think the Limo accident and Vladdy's injury changed this team forever....Lids and Vlad for 10 more years. Whoa
Raising another Red Wings Fan!
Money on the board-SCP 2013
I'm going with the 22 special. 2 bucks for every 22 goal. 2 bucks for every 22 fight
5 bucks for every series win....another 5 for every shut out! LETS GO RED WINGS!!
ADDENDUM: Since it looks like Toots may not reinserted in the series, I would like to offer Bert his money on the board. So, 2 bucks for every Bert fight, 2 bucks for every Bert goal AND since OT has been a pattern, I want to add 5 bucks for any RED WINGS OT winner. LET'S GO RED WINGS!!!!

Are you really blaming Bettman for what happened with Konstantinov and Fischer?
