The long-term prospects of the Detroit Red Wings

When former captain Nicklas Lidstrom and veteran defenseman Brad Stuart left the organization following last year’s playoff exit, some fans were concerned that No. 1 goaltender Jimmy Howard would struggle in 2013 without a great group of defensemen in front of him. The Detroit Red Wings were pushed to the brink of elimination on Wednesday with a 3-2 overtime loss in Game 5 of their first-round matchup with the Anaheim Ducks, which will send the series back to Joe Louis Arena with the home team facing a must-win situation.Red Wings Shop

Even if the Red Wings’ playoff run ended on Friday, or Sunday back in Anaheim, there are lots of positives to take from this season that should make hockey fans in Detroit excited for the team’s future as a member of the Eastern Conference.Howard has proven that he’s a capable of being the No. 1 goalie of this franchise for a long time, and fortunately for the Red Wings, the two parties were able to reach a six-year contract extension during the regular season worth $31. 75 million over six seasons with a team-friendly $5. 29 million salary cap hit.Chris Chelios Jersey

One future star on the Red Wings blue line is Dan DeKeyser, who signed with the team in March after his collegiate career ended and made an immediate impact at the NHL level. On the blue line, 24-year-old defenseman Brendan Smith has grown a lot this season and has a bright future ahead of him at the NHL level.Smith and defense partner Kyle Quincey have formed a solid duo on the blue line, and these young players will continue to develop and learn from veterans such as Niklas Kronwall.Vladimir Konstantinov Jersey
