Even though they’re not in the Western Conference anymore, I still hate the Red Wings passionately. I do miss the rivalry between them and the Blackhawks, but as a team that makes the playoffs every year, they were always a threat. Goaltenders Jimmy Howard and Petr Mrazek have been middle-of-the-road performers while younger Gustav Nyquist continues to impress. I seriously don’t understand where Detroit keeps pulling these talented forwards from, but it’s working.. 8-7-1. Previous: 18th. Detroit Red Wings. 14. team. 72
