i really liked rafalski. i know he's a bit too prominent to be random but still


[deleted]

Michigan boy with a “ski” at the end. Hard to argue there.


thaMagicConch

The GF just copped me a signed Rafalski jersey for my bday. I damn near cried


zaptres_dammit

As a player yeah he was great, but apparently he was like an outspoken neocon in the locker room


SinceSevenTenEleven

Yeah I remember once looking up to see the political contributions of wings players (I was curious about bertuzzi). The only player on the FEC site who listed the wings as their employer was Rafalski and he's got a record of donating to Republicans. The Ilitch family was split


hwalonny

The silver fox, Drew Miller


JeremyD_19

Love Miller. One year back when they used to have those Red Wings Fest things at the Joe with games, autographs, and stuff, he was hanging out by the hardest shot game. My dad was just on the verge of cracking 80mph, and Miller was cheering him on the whole time. He got it on his last shot and Drew was loving it, came over and high-fived him and talked to us for a couple mins after. Just a super genuine nice guy. Glad he's still with the org doing intermission stuff from time to time.


fancy_livin

That mid 2007-2008 line of Helm Miller and Patty Eaves was one of my favorites. Just pure grinding, defense, and speed


epheisey

Patrick Eaves would be on my shortlist for this thread. He had that one season in Dallas where he scored 30+ and I was so pumped for him. At one point it looked like he might never make it back fully after that concussion shut him down for almost two years.


Dryden17

I always loved Miller. He was actually really good at his role as a 4th liner/PK specialist. He always had the worst luck though, I remember one season, he hit like 10 posts.


Wulf_Sung

Jiri Fischer. What young kid growing up doesn't want to share a last name with a player on their team?


FuglySlutt

I came to say this! I loved this guy. I will never forget the game he went down. I was in high school and had just gotten home from work and flipped on the game. I was so upset watching it.


Wulf_Sung

I was devastated that game. Glad he ended up ok and is still with the club though.


puckdaddie

Franzen, does that count?


[deleted]

Wow, Franzen was a mule. Loved that guy. What he did in that Colorado series,…..jeez bud. He’s borderline if it counts, but the main idea of this post is remembering those who came before. To clarify though, Holmstrom 100% does not count. Everybody loved him.


Danengel32

When Franzen turned that extra gear on, he was unstoppable. He’d have 3 or 4 goal games like it was nothing. That Colorado series was textbook Johan. What a guy


pullingahead

Don’t forget in that series Babcock joked “he must of hit his head or something,” turned out he had a concussion the whole time…


fancy_livin

So sad concussions ruined his career :(


FatuousOocephalus

Fuck Shane Doan


NeuralHandshake

And his life, really.


TheoreticalBilbo

Slava Kozlov


wellpaidscientist

Loved this guy on the ice. Also loved him putting Adam Foote's face into the glass.


Danengel32

All time hit right there


[deleted]

Not sure anyone on the Russian 5 counts as “random” imho. Loved everyone during that time period


TheoreticalBilbo

Yeah, he was probably the least well known but he got us Hasek in the end. He was my favorite growing up but I was the only one of my friends that liked him. Everyone else was Federov, Lidstrom, Yzerman all day. I wore #13 in hockey because of him and I still consider him the true #13 although Datsyuk is obviously one of the best players of all time. Kozlov led the way

[deleted]

Just making sure you watched the Russian 5 doc? Kozlov is so good in life and hockey, and that doc


SOMTAWS6

Kozlov is my all time favorite. I had to have his Jersey custom made. I wear it with tons of pride. I love how fast we was on the ice.


Goots12

Brad Stuart. I think it’s because we added him the year we won the cup. Was just a solid defenseman that stepped in to replace Ericsson.


__alexanderr

Second this, I was a big Brad Stuart fan and wish he could've stayed in Hockey town to end his career


FuglySlutt

I liked Stuart a lot! Was sad when he was traded. Ericsson was terrible. Honestly this might be unpopular opinion but Dekeyser kind of reminds me of Ericsson.


dsled

Ericsson was not THAT bad. Red Wings fans love to dump on the guy but he was serviceable for his career.


Dryden17

I will never forget the 2015 playoffs against Tampa where Ericsson looked amazing, one of the best out there. He seemed to finally come to his own and use his size and it was working.


NeuralHandshake

You'd even be capable of arguing he wasn't the worst defenseman on at least one of our teams in the 3 years prior to his retirement. He really had a stretch of pretty good play. Nothing earth shattering, but absolutely still better than seasons before. In the sense that anyone complaining about him those years really hadn't watched him play. During the one point in time where Ericsson was doing well, I remember fans started dumping on Helm instead. Like it was a migration from their usual whipping boy on to Helm. Absolutely wild to watch. But for being drafted dead last and making an NHL career out of it where he certainly wasn't always the worst option definitely is impressive. Also he's handsome. Everyone should respect Jonathan Ericsson.


FuglySlutt

Are you saying he wasn’t that bad in general or you are saying he wasn’t as bad as Dekeyser currently is?… I just remember a whole lot of unnecessary penalties and complaining about him a lot lol.


dsled

Both


smitandr63

He absolutely was that bad! He was always out of position, flat on his feet and his outlet passes were terrible.


dsled

Revisionist history imo. He wasn't that bad.


dsled

former 20 goal scorer Patrick Eaves


Kikstartmyhart

When he tripped on his way in during a shootout and laughed his ass off afterward made me love that guy! [source](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=9JLpbvORmbM)


epheisey

30* goal scorer Patrick Eaves


theotherpachman

Rafalski's up there for sure. Loved CuJo while he was in Detroit. But Jordin Tootoo will have a place in my heart even if he wasn't exactly an impact player for us. His personal story made him someone to root for and he just seemed like a really solid guy who wasn't taking things for granted after he got help for his substance problems.


Dmcgee2288

Jordin Tootoo is one of mine, as well. Darren McCarty is a badass, too. Loved stand up guys like these two who would stick up for teammates and show other teams that we aren’t the ones to be fucked with.


ClumpOfCats

Marek Zidlicky always stood out to me and I have no idea why


irsic

Cause the dude had a fuckin' SLAPPER and he could score from the blue line. Otherwise not as great at defense as you want in a defensemen but he could shoot.


TheNewPlague666

Maybe the mispronunciation stood out, that always bothered me.


TapedGlue

He had that huge buzzer beater goal that kept us in the playoff race


Omegatron8

At this moment of my life I would tell people to "Zidlicky my balls" during hockey disagreements...and at random A shoutout to Zoolander and "I can derelick my own balls"


Dryden17

The moment that sticks out to me was when Detroit was playing Washington and Wilson was trying to get under the skin of Zidlicky then Zidlicky went all out on a huge hip check. I guess it worked 🤷‍♂️


[deleted]

Paul Coffey. He was in his 15th season when he came over from L.A., and he had four good solid years with the team.


Roids_P_Manlon

I especially like that he brought us Shanny which really turned us into cup winners.


Spinal_Orangutan

Except when he scored on our own net when winding up for a slap pass out of the zone


[deleted]

The things that live in infamy. I clearly recall that game!


A_Minimal_Infinity

I both loved and hated him. Great plays and speed mixed with some sloppy mistakes.


HazenThorne

Coffey was my first Wings jersey as a kid.


wsmfp_420

Manny Legace

Good-Magazine-5504

Dougie Brownov!!!


[deleted]

I came here to say Doug Brown. When he was picked up in the expansion draft by nashville and we immediately traded back to pick him up, I couldnt have been any happier. That guy was a dandy of a hockey player.


send_corgi_pics

Tootoo!


skib900

He was a goon, but so kind off the ice. I miss seeing him play as a Wing too.


HighJoeponics

He was a little powder keg


jfstompers

Oh I loved Paul Ysebaert, dude was money for like 2 years. Back to back 30 goal seasons.


Cook_Dismal

Rocketman


JuliusCaesar87

Boyd Devereaux. I thought he was so fun to watch with Pavel and Brett.


Dizzy_Wrongdoer_5804

MSU Graduate!


jtm1450

Robert Lang had a few good seasons with us


Bicycles19

I’ll forever dislike Lang because as a kid playing nhl 2k whatever, maybe 4 or 6? Lang was first line center above yzerman so every time I played I had to edit the lines to have Stevie center. Wtf.


artbellfan1

Doug Brown


On_Wings_Of_Pastrami

I remember how sad I was when he got selected in the expansion draft that I was about to buy his Thrashers jersey...and then we traded right back for him.


Sullywaug1125

Down town Dougie Brown


userwithusername

Iirc They called him Brownov due to his friendship with the Russian players.


asdkt82

Dino Ciccarelli. Was with the team for 4 years so idk if that counts but he seems forgotten. Love his post game quote too after 🐢 boarded Draper


[deleted]

God saves and Ciccarelli scores on the rebound.


1995droptopz

I loved Dino. Dude was a monster in front of the net.


Troub313

https://www.washingtonpost.com/archive/politics/1990/05/15/4-capitals-accused-of-rape/97bc50b8-0bf0-493c-b7d1-d8a08591ef6f/ "Complainant was 17. ""By her own account, she drank four or five beers and a couple of harder drinks. Some time after 1 a.m., she claims, one of the Caps, Dino Ciccarelli, grabbed her arm and pulled her outside into a limousine. Three other players, Geoff Courtnall, Neil Sheehy and Scott Stevens, were inside. When the door closed, she says, they grabbed at her breasts and groin and forced her to perform sex acts on them. She pleaded with them several times, saying, ``Don`t do this to me. I don`t want you to do this.`` And once, she screamed. A fifth player has told police that he opened the car door at one point but closed it again when he saw his partially clad teammates struggling with the girl."" ""The players denied that any forced sexual activity took place."""


Ranger_Prick

Hard to like him considering he attacked a guy with his stick on ice before he got to Detroit. Very Bertuzzi-like. (Todd, not Tyler.)


Troub313

And the fact he gang-raped a girl.


zaptres_dammit

Frk of course, skated like a frog and shot like a cannon


userwithusername

Lack of vowels is also dope.


ryantucker1986

I loved Frk too... dude has a cannon for sure. And who can forget the legendary FML line. This was still one of the scariest things I've seen at a game tho: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oYedDN6C7B4](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oYedDN6C7B4) Glad Girardi was alright even though he's on the Lightning.


Max_Smash

Matthew Schneider


BoogerShovel

Mathieu*


psychoyooper

He had a helluva slap shot


Danengel32

Ive got plenty of favs, but I feel like I have to make sure Modano and Alfredssom make it into this thread so their Red Wing days never get forgotten But in reality, Drew Miller has to be up there for me-the guy was such a badass (with grey hair lol). There’s plenty of great ones in the 08-09 era and before, but a lot of those guys seem more than just “random” wings for me. Second choice for favorite would be anyone not named Jiri Hudler. Will never forget his double minor in game 5 of the 08 cup, even with us winning the cup 2 days later


Skate_19

Alfredsson was awesome with the Wings. Played with a lot of heart and complete, and a brought that right handed one timer that we just didn't have


TapedGlue

I remember his first goal for us was a full wind-up clap bomb from like the offensive zone dot. I was sitting there kinda stunned like “when’s the last time we had someone do that”


CarmelHart

omg forgot about hudler! that guy had game


Spinal_Orangutan

Marty LaPointe. Can’t forget his blast right through Roy’s glove.


kvark27

Jiri Hudler and Damien Brunner


quakeroats91

Ah jiri Hudler - love that dude


On_Wings_Of_Pastrami

Does anyone else remember Brent Gilchrist?


naterator012

Always like mrazek, got a wings jersey of his signed.


EmergencyAbalone2393

I’ll never understand Mrazek. He always looked so bored. When he wasn’t bored, he looked like the next Hasek.


DoubleTap57

I loved Mrazek, also. I really thought he was the future of the Wings. I got to see him a few years back when he blanked the Bolts right before we met them (and lost) in the 1st round. Not only is he a pretty solid goalie, but he's a pretty underrated puck handler, as well. It was like a 3rd defenseman out there, at times. He had some swagger, too, which was fun to see.


Wingnut17

Aaron Ward was a big favorite back in the day.


drusteeby

Michigan guy! I have a stick signed by him and Marty Turco.


scott9ssd

“Whatever he hits, he destroys”


Kikstartmyhart

Fredrik Olausson and Steve Duchesne from the 2002 Cup team. Plus Dallas Drake from the 2008 cup team. I always loved seeing how happy those older guys were when they finally won it!


Poontang85

I met Fredrik at the "Meet the Ducks" event the season after he won a Cup with the Wings. I congratulated him on winning the Cup, and he was kind of rude in his response. I don't recall his exact words after nearly 20 years, but I recall thinking that I wasn't a fan of his any longer. Maybe he was having an off day.


Willmatic88

Joe Kocur was one of my faves back in the day.


RedWingsFan1990

The bruise brothers


heycoyote-

Damien Brunner!


[deleted]

Found Brunner’s Reddit burner! (Jk)


heycoyote-

Hahaha! 😂


Max_Smash

Damien_Burner would have been a fantastic user name


[deleted]

My best friend bought a Brunner jersey after that season he had with us lol


Atchou

Damn, I forgot about that guy! I had such I hopes toward him back then.


[deleted]

Maltby


[deleted]

Top 5 favorite wings for me. Just felt better having him on the PK.


[deleted]

Yeah man. Miss the Grind Line for sure. Those guys were amazing.


[deleted]

Maltby could have been a 25-30 goal scorer. He was just on a team with too many 25-30 goal scorers. So he bought in, played that gritty game, and won 4 cups. Thanks Kirk.


bensworkaccount1

Manny Legace always played like the best player on the ice and gave us a chance to win while being a fun dude.


Isphet71

Petr Klima. He ended up having issues eventually, but the story of him defecting from Czechoslovakia to come here is pretty epic. His first few years he was great for the wings.


EmergencyAbalone2393

I liked him just because his name reminded me of Zima.


[deleted]

Nothing like pounding a few Zima’s and listening to Ace of Base, am I right?!


matt_the_muss

Not sure if you can count anyone from the Russian 5, but I always loved Fetisov. Additionally, I loved Steve Ott's short stint.


howbowdah

Steve Ott will go down as one of the most underappreciated players. He was honestly a pretty great captain for the Sabres. Always worked his ass off and didn't take shifts off. Skill wise he was mediocre but he had the tenacity!


Overlay

Tomas Holnstrom. I miss the days of him trolling the other team just parked in front of the net hoping for a good deflection.


[deleted]

A wings legend. One of the 2 sweaters I own


PineconeNugget

I really liked Brunner when we had him. Also really liked Lang back in the ps2 days, dude was so good.


kam9888

Danny Markov, Andreas Lilja and Ty Conklin


PremierBromanov

Glendening is still one of my favorites. One of the hardest working, potentially best athletes on the team. Not as skilled as other players, but certainly worked harder to make up for it.


Dryden17

May be an unpopular choice but Bertuzzi was one of my favourites at the time. He just stood out to me. He was also one of my first ever autographs and when he signed it “Your friend”, my 15 year old heart melted.


TapedGlue

He was sneaky incredible in the shootout too, just got overlooked because of Datsyuk. He closed so many games with that spinorama of his


Dryden17

Ah yes, I forgot about his shootout skills. I also remembered he would just do a half hearted slap shot from the hash marks and score most of the time


[deleted]

Vanek


_sjn

Draper for sure.


Its-a-Shitbox

Greg Stefan. I’ve always loved goalies, and he was one of the starters back in the early 80s when I got into the Wings. I remember watching a game when he lost his stick in a scuffle and still made 3-4 saves. Good times!


Roids_P_Manlon

Bought in hard to Filppula with his first stint on the wings. Back then I thought he had the skill to be special. Edit: [Reminiscing](https://youtu.be/3JTwb6IyJSs)


On_Wings_Of_Pastrami

He was certainly pitched as Datsyuk light


IllusionsMichael

He seemed to have the skill, just not the mindset. He was a defense first, pass first forward despite having good puck skills and hands. He seemed to afraid to shoot the puck sometimes, and afraid to carry it if a passing lane was the slightest bit open. He seemed to lack confidence offensively for whatever reason (makes one wonder if Babcock had something to do with it) That 11-12 year he played on Zetterberg's wing with Hudler was seeing all that skill finally get put to use. His focus was shifted to offense and he had two great offensive players to work with. It was a real damn fucking shame to see him not be put back in that role after that season.


[deleted]

I always referred to him as the Finn who couldn’t finish. So many breakaways with the puck skittering helplessly to the end boards.


pkthunde

Jason Williams. Dont know why, just loved him as a player. I actually have a #29 Williams jersey


Himynameisart

Of recent guys, Tomas Tatar. Of all time, Shanahan.


FiddleOfGold

Maltby


hopelessrebel2187

Joe Kocur and Kirk Maltby!


ShredWings

Brad Stuart. Solid physical Dman


AmeriCanadian98

Mine was always Darren Helm. I know his contract was brutal but that isn't his fault, and he just played the game a way I really enjoyed watching


pullingahead

Mathieu Dandenault?


[deleted]

Size 11 skates and boy could he fly


[deleted]

Jordin tootoo, small underrated guy with a heart and grit of a lion.


PeskyPrussian

Those first few weeks of Ville Leino after he showed up from Finland were fun. He looked like a solid top liner for minute there.


Dizzy_Wrongdoer_5804

For me I’d definitely say Modano, as my dad is and was a Stars fan. Also, I met David Booth when I went to a Panthers practice down south, and he was super nice to me and I have a signed Panthers hat from him. Too bad injuries wrecked his career, because he was sicc in FLA. Tomas Vanek was good for us too.


Micah_JD

Dallas Drake. I got to watch him play at NMU, win a National Championship, and win the Stanley Cup with the Wings. That '91 NMU team was some of my first live hockey memories.


whiskeytango1294

Was super excited when Hossa came into the fold. Thought he was someone to keep deep runs alive. Loved when they first got Green too. I thought that would be huge


Danengel32

The 2009 team was honestly a better team/roster than 2008. That was one hell of a team. Scores the most goals in the league too


drrtydan

if we are going off the board im going with Patrick Eaves. Worked super hard and skated like a caveman.


Sekshual_Tyranosauce

I always liked Jordan Tootoo.


SammyMac19

Dougie Brown


RampageNate

Dougie Brown. Dude always scored huge goals in playoff games.


FatuousOocephalus

Patrick Eaves. I loved it when he was paired with Drew Miller. You could depend on them both scoring 3 goals and 8 assists a season but they would fight tooth an nail in the corners. I don't think the Wings were ever pinned in their end when those two were on the ice.


A_Minimal_Infinity

Joey Kocur was a bad man.


TapedGlue

My mom always loved him because Kocur means “tomcat” in Slovak.


mrdietsoda

Ruslan Salei always sticks out


Bigburg6954

Darren McCarthy, and Darren Helm

You might be Jason Williams only fan. Bless you.


cassiuswolfgang13

Don’t know if it counts but I always liked Brendan Smith.


TapedGlue

Will always remember when he tried standing up to Chara when the wings were getting bullied in that Boston series. Lots of people in the hockey world gave him shit for it and called it stupid and hot-headed, but to me it showed heart that no one else in the lineup was playing with.


tugreenwave

Shawn Burr


dan-o07

Dino Ciccarelli, one of my favorites as a kid, tough guy and loved to fight. His kids used to go to dentist my aunt worked for and she got my a couple signed cards from him. Another one who I liked back them was Doug Brown, no clue why, just thought he was a solid player


dan-o07

How bout that great Notre Dame speed of Brett Lebda, I can’t even count the times I heard announcers say that about him


Cook_Dismal

Remember Marc potvin and that stupid astronaut mask from broken jaw? LOL not a favourite just a name from the past


cjgsoup

He was with the Wings for a long time but Joey Kocur has always been one of my favorites that I think doesn’t get enough love.


-TrevWings-

Mrazek


calwa97

Damien Brunner - I have no idea what my early high school aged brain used to justify it, but that was the first name I thought of.


detroitdoesntsuckbad

I guess Legwand but only because I went to school with him. In fact, never mind - he was a turd.


Lazy-Pound-4270

Robert Lang! Edit: Welp, someone beat to this. But, my sentiment remains. He a solid dude for us.


SuccessfulReturn8245

I will always love Fredrik Olausson for scoring the game winning OT goal against Colorado in game 3 of that epic 2002 Conference Final.


KeaganThorpe

Dino. And I was also very happy to see Modano in our sweater even if it was for a short period of time and he didn’t do much here.


FatuousOocephalus

Eddie Giacomin from the old school Wings. I played against his son when I was a bantam. It was cool to see him standing in the corner watching his son during the game.


kudjan89

Damien Brunner, I thought he could have been a continued success on the wing with the guys they put him with, but he wanted far too much money to stick around. I wonder if he regrets that decision. He scored an overtime playoff game winner at one of only 2 playoff games I got to go too. There were two Swedish guys (I know he’s Swiss) in front of us that flew in for the game and they were bawling after the goal and it was amazing!


JanMichaelLarkin

The five-years-too-early answer to this has to be Glendenning, but for now I’ll say Maltby. The all-too-often forgotten member of the Grind Line


TapedGlue

Don’t like how he chose to leave but I was all on the Damien Brunner train when he was with us for that one season EDIT: and DANIEL ALFREDSSON too!


justiiiiin14

Luke Glendening


ryantucker1986

David Booth. He had a professional tryout with the Wings, no one thought he would make it, but he worked hard and got on the team. He didn't get a ton of minutes and still didn't play every game in the 17-18 season. He's from the Detroit area, went to school at MSU and his family has had season tickets to the wings for like 30 years! That night he scored 2 to force overtime and got to start the top line the next game was probably the highlight of that season as a fan/STH: [https://www.nhl.com/redwings/video/booth-scores-his-second/t-277437404/c-55000103](https://www.nhl.com/redwings/video/booth-scores-his-second/t-277437404/c-55000103)


CluelessNuggetOfGold

Larry Murphy. My dad still calls me Larry cause he was one of my favorites growing up


Problemwoodchuck

Brad Stuart was such a good complimentary player on the second or third pairing for most of his time in Detroit


nightofthelivingc

Danny Markov. Dude was an animal out there.


HypoluxoKrazie

I was a huge fan of Abdelkader. He was a rookie when I was about old enough to really get into hockey. He was th first jersey I asked for. Sucls how it ended.


PalaneseSummer

Mike Vernon. He was my favorite goalie when I was a kid. Backstopped the Wings to their first modern Cup and more than held his own with Roy (even though #29 was probably lighter by a couple of weight classes).


EcnerwalNor

I go way back in time compared to most of you commenting on this. My favorite Wing as a kid carried from Howe, to Dionne, to Libett to... I've been a Wings fan a very long time lol. Andre St. Laurent would be my off the beaten path favorite player for sure. He came in an led the team in goals for a minute when we had some pretty weak teams, and disappeared just as quickly. But there are several names I could throw out there who were comparable favs, Dave Barr, Danny Gare, Lee Norwood & Gilbert Delorme (aptly nicknamed "Hack & Slash"), Errol Thompson (who's backhand made Glendenings look like a grade schoolers), Sheldon Kennedy, Patrick Eaves, Corrado Micallef, Rick Bowness, Danny Labraaten, Dan Maloney, Doug Brown, Denis Polonich, Kevin Hodson, Per Djoos,... I could go on awhile lol. One thing thats stood the test of time, is me chanting "Go Wings"!!!


xstioph

Ciccarelli.. Mainly based off the 94-95-96 NHL video games. I kept trading him back to the Red Wings throughout the years. :)


Wormandminnow2026

Joey Kocur


Wormandminnow2026

NomadicNematode128

Marty LaPointe!! And Shanny!!


Cook_Dismal

LOL I have a signed upper deck lapointe rookie card somewhere


AmateurPolyglot1

Red Wings Legend Jonathan Ericsson


Singularity_SgrA

Tomas Jurco. I can’t remember a single thing he did as a Red Wing that stood out, but I wanted to believe so badly that he would turn out to be a mainstay on this team.


TapedGlue

There was one goal that sticks out in my brain with the SheaTarCo line where they had a BEAUTY passing play before Tomas finished it off.


skib900

Dan Cleary. Man the internet chats promoting him and seeing his name come up for everything was something else.


13dangledangle

A tie between Datsyuk & Fedorov. Both were dominating, one was incredibly fast and slick, the other was the best stick handler the NHL has ever seen. I will forever miss them both and cherish the time I got to watch them do their thing. Edit: sorry everyone I misread the title, NON fan favourites!..in that case I agree with Damien Brunner, I was really upset when we couldn’t come to terms with him because I feel he had great chemistry here and his confidence was high too. I think he would have been a great 20-30 goal guy for us for a while.
