14. 2009 Playoff Run

Any time you end the season with a Stanley Cup Final game 7 in your building, it’s something to remember.  Amazingly, the Red Wings have played in 7 of the 17 all time Stanley Cup Final game 7’s.  Even though the Red Wings came up short in their bid to win their 2nd straight Stanley Cup, this was quite the playoff run.  That being said, I still have nightmares about Nick Lidstrom’s missed last second scoring chance.
