The Detroit Red Wings have had their fair share of talented and elite players over the last few decades. Most people are familiar with front-end names like Gordie Howe, Ted Lindsay, Steve Yzerman, and Sergei Fedorov, but, most people may not be as knowledgeable about some of the historic blue-liners in Detroit hockey history. In my humble hockey-obsessed opinion, here are the top 5 Detroit Red Wings’ defencemen of all-time.
#5: Gary Bergman (1964-1975)
Gary Bergman is a name that many hockey fans are probably not very familiar with. It’s a name I wasn’t very familiar with, but after doing some research, I decided it was a name that should be included on this list.
