The Detroit Red Wings in the last 10 to 15 seasons have been one of the best teams when it comes to the NHL Draft. They have found players like Henrik Zetterberg and Pavel Datsyuk in the late rounds in the late 1990’s.

They found great talent throughout the 2000’s even though they may not have had a first round pick and if they did, it was a late on. No matter what they made it work.

Yet, the team has also made some pretty bad one, so why not take a look a few of them. It was a bit harder than I thought it would be, but hey a challenge is always fun.
