Regular visitors of Notinhalloffame.com know that we are slowly working on the top 50 of every major team in the NHL, NBA, NFL, and MLB. Once that is done, we will examine how each team honors its past players, coaches, and executives. As such, it is important to us that the Detroit Red Wings retire the #91 of Sergei Fedorov.
Fedorov played for Detroit from 1990 to 2003, during which he led the franchise to three Stanley Cup Championships (1997, 1998 & 2002) and won the 1994 Hart Trophy. He also won two Frank J. Selke Trophies as the NHL’s best defensive forward. Statistically, Fedorov scored 954 Points for the Red Wings.
The ceremony is scheduled for January 12 during Detroit’s home game against the Carolina Hurricanes.
Federov becomes the ninth player to earn this honor. He joins Terry Sawchuk (#1), Red Kelly (#4), Nicklas Lidstrom (#5), Ted Lindsay (#7), Gordie Howe (#9), Alex Delvecchio (#10), Sid Abel (#12), and Steve Yzerman (#19).
We at Notinhalloffame.com would like to congratulate Sergei Fedorov on his upcoming honor.
