What should the Detroit Red Wings do In order to create a Dynasty?

Bringing the Stanley cup is a joy few people can feel, think about it coaches, gms and owners demand many things from a star player like playing 82 games, scoring over 70 points, and having a great plus minus average, and that’s without playoffs taken into account.

I have no doubt in my mind it’s a challenge few are up to, after all its way more difficult than winning the Superbowl, sorry NFL fans, and I’m certain one of the keys to do it is to continue with that DESIRE TO WIN NO MATTER WHAT.

So what should my favorite team do in order to repeat the championship?

First of all try not to lose the core players for the next season, something Kenny Holland already has done (in my mind that’s one of the reasons why the Ducks couldn’t repeat the championship), by core players I’m referring to Henrik Zetterberg, Pavel Datsyuk, Nicklas Lidstrom, Tomas Holmstrom and Brian Rafalski

Try to create some space for free agents via trade or just letting some players go (hopefully Brad Stuart will stay), like Dallas Drake and Andreas Lilja, although I love those two, they aren’t getting any younger, and over the long haul it would be the best for guys like Justin Abdelkander and Kyle Quincey to get more ice time.

But above all a team must not lose the will to win, the team must continue to drive forward as they did before, because playoffs test which team has the biggest will to win.

I am a die hard Red Wings fan ever since I turned 13, plan to be one my whole life.

I played hockey on a minor level, but I wasn't very good, I never made the team, so I decided to step aside and leave the game to pros.
