Alright, HFWings, let’s talk about one of the most tragic injustices in hockey history: the Detroit Red Wings player who was too good for a cup.
We all know Detroit’s rich history of greatness. Cups galore, banners in the rafters, players who could make you believe in magic (and power plays that would make a Calvinist question their faith). But there’s one player who was this close to a ring. Who was the best Red Wing to never win a Stanley Cup, despite being completely deserving?
Let’s start the debate. My pick is:
Justin Abdelkader – The man was an absolute machine. He could skate like a gazelle, shoot like he had a rocket launcher, and backcheck like a bouncer at a nightclub.
Abdelkader deserves better!
Who’s your pick for the best Red Wing to never win the Cup?
