Our All-Time Top 50 Detroit Red Wings have been updated to reflect the 2021/22 Season

Yes, we know that this is taking a while!

As many of you know, we here at Notinhalloffame.com are slowly generating the 50 of each major North American sports team.  That being said, we have existing Top 50 lists out and we always consistently look to update them when we can and based on necessity.  As such, we are very happy to present our post 2021/22 revision of our top Detroit Red Wings.

As for all of our top 50 players in hockey we look at the following: 

1.  Advanced Statistics.

2.  Traditional statistics and how they finished in the National Hockey League. 

3.  Playoff accomplishments.

4.  Their overall impact on the team and other intangibles not reflected in a stat sheet.

Last year, the Red Wings did not make the playoffs, but this is a young team that appears to be improving.  There were no changes in our Top 50, but we do acknowledge that last season has been taken into consideration.

As always, we present our top five:

1. Gordie Howe

2. Nicklas Lidstrom

3. Steve Yzerman

4. Terry Sawchuk

5. Ted Lindsay

You can find the entire list here.

Notably, Team Captain, Dylan Larkin, was unable to crack the Top 50, but likely will next year if he has a similar season to 2021/22.

We welcome your input and comments and as always, we thank you for your support.
