    1932–1942: The new Detroit Red Wings

    Chicago grain merchant James E. Norris bought the team in 1932. His first act was to change the team's name to the Red Wings. He also designed a new logo with a wing protruding from a wheel, more or less the same logo that is used today. Norris believed the logo would help the team curry favor with Detroit's auto industry. He also wanted to pay homage to a hockey team for whom he had played earlier in the century, the Montreal Hockey Club—nicknamed the Winged Wheelers. Under the new name Red...

    1967–1982: The "Dead Wings" Era

    Only a year after making the Finals, the Red Wings finished a distant fifth, 24 points out of the playoffs. It was the beginning of a slump from which they would not emerge for almost 20 years. Between 1967 and 1983, Detroit only made the playoffs twice, winning one series. From 1968 to 1982, the Wings had 14 head coaches (not counting interim coaches), with none lasting more than three seasons.

    1983–1993: The Yzerman Era Begins

Defenseman Brad Park, acquired from the Boston Bruins in the 1983 free-agent market, also helped the Wings reach the postseason and ended up winning th...

    1994–2004: The Russian Five and return to glory

In his second season, the lockout-shortened 1994–95 season, he guided Detroit to its first Finals appearance in 29 years, only to be swept by the New Jersey Devils. The Wings kept adding more star power, picking up Slava Fetisov, Igor Larionov and goaltender Mike Vernon in trades and winning an NHL record 62 games in 1996. After defeating the St. Louis Blues (with a Game 7, double-overtime goal b...
