The Best Detroit Red Wings Player to Never Win the Stanley Cup (But Should’ve)

[Gniwder]

Probert is easily the most popular player.

Best player is another discussion.

Popular sure, but your second point brings up the question as to if he deserved a Cup. Does a player really deserve a Cup for punching other players in the face? Enforcers are much more replaceable than a player like Larkin or Oates. Oates lead a team (98 Caps) to the finals and played in a second one at the end of his career.

In all fairness, Bob was just shy of 0.55 points per game while doing all that face-punching for the Wings in the regular season, and 0.68 in the playoffs.
