For now, most of that holds true, but as everyone knows most of the wings are old and probably not long till retirement. I think that'll devastate the team. But they will always be know for how good they were, just like any other team. And The Miami Dolphins were better than the wings, they went undefeated (as im sure you know)

Detroit is regarded throughout sports as the best run organization for their system used in developing young players, making timely and smart trades, free agency, and coaching. This includes not just North America but also Europe from everything in the minors to the pro level.

The point you're making was stated when Yzerman retired. The Wings haven't skipped a beat. The team is stocked and will be contending for years.

exactly the wings have been known for years for finding players that everyone has over looked and them becomeing what looks to be future hall of famers. and you can almost say that when stevie went to the front office the wings stepped it up a notch. (not saying he was holding them back by any means)

Also Mike Illitch does what most owners don't do. He spends the money when he needs to.


Not taking away from the Dolphins but...
The dolphins also only played once a week and a total of what 22 games tops? That's a little different than playing 80+.

I got this in an email and thought you all might get a laugh out of it.
