Did You Know...

You’re probably thinking that it can’t get any better for the Detroit Red Wings, who beat the Pittsburgh Penguins to take home the 2008 Stanley Cup, but you’d be wrong. All but two players on the winning team (Dallas Drake and Dominik Hasek retired) are back for the 2008-09 season, but what really got tongues wagging was the surprising acquisition of Marian Hossa - from the Penguins no less, which just had to have stung! Hossa joins a roster chock full of award-winning talent, including Henrik Zetterberg (Conn Smythe Trophy-winner), Nicklas Lidstrom (Norris Trophy-winner) and Pavel Datsyuk (Lady Byng Trophy-winner). This makes the Wings early favorites for a repeat Stanley Cup win, and fans just can’t wait for the season to start. If you want to see this impressive team in action, now’s the time to get your tickets to Joe Louis Arena. Get your Detroit Red Wings tickets right here and watch the Wings rule the 2008-09 season.

The NHL's long-awaited return to the ice in 2005-06 was a triumphant one for the Detroit Red Wings. The Red Wings dominated the regular season, finishing with 58 wins to only 16 regulation-time losses and 8 overtime losses, for a total of 124 points. That placed them not only at the top of the Central Division, and of the Western Conference, but also earned them the Presidents' Trophy for the year's best record in the entire National Hockey League.
