释义 | Detroit Red Wings American hockey team American professional ice hockey team based in Detroit. The team was founded in 1926 and plays in the Western Conference of the National Hockey League (NHL). The Red Wings, one of the “Original Six” teams that made up the NHL from 1942 until expansion in 1967, are not only one of hockey's oldest franchises but also one of its most successful teams, having won 11 Stanley Cups (Stanley Cup). The Red Wings experienced early success in the 1930s, led by coach and eventual general manager Jack Adams. The team won its first Stanley Cup against the Toronto Maple Leafs in the 1935–36 season, followed by a repeat victory the following year. These early Red Wings teams featured future Hall of Fame member Syd Howe, who was also part of the Red Wings' 1942–43 Stanley Cup-winning squad. Right wing Gordie Howe (Howe, Gordie) and goaltender Terry Sawchuk (Sawchuk, Terry), two of hockey's all-time great players, led the team to its greatest success throughout the 1950s, where they won Stanley Cups in 1950, 1952, 1954, and 1955. This era was followed by a slump that featured two play-off berths between the 1966–67 and 1982–83 NHL seasons, earning the team the nickname “The Dead Wings.” Detroit drafted centre Steve Yzerman in 1983 and returned to the play-offs the next year. The turnaround was not complete until the 1987–88 season, when, along with forwards Bob Probert and Petr Klima, Yzerman led the Red Wings to their first divisional title in 23 years. The 1990s saw the advent of the “Russian Five,” made up of Sergei Fedorov, Slava Kozlov, Vladimir Konstantinov, Igor Larionov, and Slava Fetisov. The Russian Five teamed with Yzerman, left wing Brendan Shanahan, and defenseman Nicklas Lidstrom under the leadership of coach Scotty Bowman to bring Detroit back-to-back Stanley Cups in the 1996–97 and (without Konstantinov) 1997–98 NHL seasons. Dominik Hašek (Hašek, Dominik) and Brett Hull, both veteran free-agent acquisitions and frequent All Stars, were featured on a team that won another Stanley Cup in the 2001–02 season. Lidstrom, goalie Chris Osgood, and left wing Henrik Zetterberg were star players on the team that won the 2007–08 Stanley Cup against the Pittsburgh Penguins. |
