1. That second picture hurts man, need a trigger warning next time or something /s

2. This was another team where there were lots of choices so there are definitely a few good ones that I had to leave off.

3. #YOU LEAVE DETROIT RED WINGS LEGEND MIKE MODANO OUT OF THIS!

4. I forgot about Bobby Ryan on the Red Wings

5. Wendel Clark would’ve been a good one for Detroit too. 

6. Mike modano at 40 games is rouugghhhhh.

   Fuck babcock

7. As always obligated Fuck Mike Babcock.

8. [And 12 games of Wendel Clark](https://nationalhockeynow.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/11/2021/10/49002.jpg).

9. The 98-99 trade deadline was dope

10. As soon as I saw Alfie first I knew Modano was going to be next.

    That Legwand trade ended up horribly given Calle Jarnkrok immediately became an NHLer for the Preds right after switching addresses.

11. PAIN.

12. Brad May in a Wings uniform isn’t unusual to me since he was wearing it when [Rick Rypien kicked his ass](https://youtu.be/sqZt1jCMCng?si=pgAYhOVPMVX1iouZ)

13. Curtis Joseph as well.

14. Erik Cole is another guy that would fit here.

15. It’s pretty viscous that the wings could field multiple lineups of other teams legends

    Robitaille (Kings) – Modano (Stars) – Alfie (Sens)

    Salming (Leafs) – Chelios (Hawks)

    Hasek (Sabres)

16. Everyone looks good in the winged wheel

17. https://preview.redd.it/v4kbr7rhbxdd1.jpeg?width=784&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=dacf132a96be1f69791747d02e96642d8c3dee2b

    Howe. As in Mark Howe, he’ll always be on Broad Street

18. Ugh the Modano one hurts me so much.

19. That Sittler pic is jarring.

20. Honorable mention to Stephen Weiss #9 #90

21. 11 games for Red Wings legend Erik Cole

    How can you forget about Red Wings legend Dan Cloutier? (PTO only)

23. That first pick caused psychic damage to every Senators fan in this sub

24. Patty Kane is still unreal to me…

25. You forgot Stephen Weiss!

26. I could’ve sworn Knuble was on the Wings for most of the 90s… Wtf

27. Seriously jumpscare me with Red Wings Alfredsson

28. I honestly thought Hatcher was a Wing for much longer then just 15 games.

29. Hossa makes me chuckle, still.
