Although the Red Wings continue to have some of the highest attendance in the NHL, fans are starting to get fed up with the playoff drought and poor treatment by the organization.
It should not come as a surprise to anyone: Detroit, also known as Hockeytown, has some passionate hockey fans.
Over the 100 years of the franchise, the Detroit faithful have never wavered. From the success of the Production Line in the 1950s, to the resurgence in the 1990s and 2000s, and the current playoff drought of the 2010s and 2020s, the Red Wings are a fabric of their city and have one of the most dedicated fanbases in hockey.
