Murphy, Coffey elected to Hall of Fame



TORONTO (June 9, 2004) -- Jim Gregory, Chairman of the Hockey Hall of Fame Selection Committee, announced today that three players who starred in the NHL on defence -- Ray Bourque, Paul Coffey and Larry Murphy -- have been elected to the Hockey Hall of Fame in the Player Category. The vote was made today at the annual meeting of the Selection Committee in Toronto. "The Hockey Hall of Fame is proud to welcome Ray, Paul and Larry as Honoured Members," said Jim Gregory. "Their contributions to the game of hockey are well documented and their election to the Hall of Fame is richly deserved. Born in 1961 in Weston, Ontario, Paul Coffey was the first selection of the Sault Ste. Marie Greyhounds in the 1978 Midget draft. He played one and a half seasons in the Soo before being traded to the Kitchener Rangers, where he was playing when he was made a first round selection of the Edmonton Oilers (sixth overall) in the 1980 Entry Draft. During seven seasons with the Oilers, Coffey was a key component of three Stanley Cup teams and was a first team All-Star twice and second team All-Star on three occasions. He also won the Norris Trophy in 1985 and 1986. In 1987, he was traded to Pittsburgh and during his almost five seasons with the Penguins, Coffey again earned First and Second All-Star team member honours, and won his fourth Stanley Cup in 1991. From Pittsburgh, Coffey spent a season in Los Angeles before being tradedto Detroit in January of 1993. During his three and a half seasons in Detroit, Paul won his third Norris Trophy in 1995. When his 21-year playing career ended in 2001, Coffey retired second only to Ray Bourque in goals, assists and total points for an NHL defenceman. "I had a chance to see Grant get elected to the Hall last year and it's a tremendous honour to join all of my Oilers teammates," said Coffey. "When we beat the Islanders to win our first Stanley Cup and later watched the stars from that team get into the Hall, it?s amazing to receive the telephone call that Grant, Wayne, Jari and Slats got." Hailing from Scarborough, Ontario, Larry Murphy played Junior hockey with the Peterborough Petes from 1978 to 1980, leading the team to the Memorial Cup in 1978-79. The Los Angles Kings first choice, fourth overall, in the 1980 Entry Draft, Larry set records for most assists (60) and points (76) by a rookie defenceman in his first season in 1980-81. During his 21 NHL seasons, Larry played in 1,615 regular season games, scoring 287 goals, 929 assists and 1,216 points. A second team NHL All-Star in 1987, 1993 and 1995, Larry won four Stanley Cups - in 1991 and 1992 Pittsburgh and 1997 and 1998 with Detroit. "This is something that, as a player, is the ultimate compliment," said Murphy. "It is a statement of appreciation and I am extremely thrilled to receive this honour." The 2004 Induction Celebration will be held on Monday, November 8th, at the Hockey Hall of Fame in Toronto.

LEWIS AGREES TO ONE-YEAR EXTENSION


DETROIT (June 26, 2004) -- General Manager Ken Holland today announced that the club has signed Dave Lewis to a one-year contract extension. In keeping with team policy, terms of the deal were not disclosed. “We are very pleased to have Dave back in the fold for another season”, said Holland. “He has done a good job for us over the last two seasons and we look forward to him being back behind the Detroit bench next year.” “I am very excited and happy to be back for another season”, said Lewis. “I look forward to the challenge of bringing another Stanley Cup Championship back to Hockeytown.” Dave Lewis enters his third season as head coach of the Detroit Red Wings, and his 19th year overall with the organization, (two as a player and 17 as a coach). The team compiled a 48-20-10-4 record for 110 points under his direction in the 2002-03 campaign. Lewis guided the team in the 2003-04 season to earn the franchise its fourth Presidents’ Trophy as the Red Wings finished with a record of 48-21-11-2 for 109 points. He also led the club to earn its second consecutive Central Division title in as many years as he’s been at the helm. Lewis coached his 100th game as head coach November 15, 2003 and has the distinction of having the best record of any Detroit coach in franchise history after the first 100 games posting a 57-31-12 record. Lewis has been a mainstay behind the bench holding the distinction of having worked with three different head coaches. He began in 1987 by working with Jacques Demers, followed by Bryan Murray and continuing with Scotty Bowman. Lewis’ 15 years as an NHL defenseman prepared him for his coaching career as he has excelled both as a motivator and tactician behind the Red Wings’ bench. His other duties include extensive video work used in scouting opponents. Lewis, who will be 51 on July 3, 2004, joined the coaching staff immediately after retiring as a player November 6, 1987, amid his 15th National Hockey League season. He has three Stanley Cup Championships in his career, 1997, 1998 and 2002, all with Detroit. At the beginning of the 1998-99 season, Dave shared the head coaching responsibilities with Barry Smith through training camp and the first five regular-season games as Bowman recovered from off-season knee surgery. The Lewis/Smith combination produced 4-1–0 record (.800). A native of Kindersley, SK, Lewis played junior hockey for Saskatoon (WHL) and was the New York Islanders’ second pick (33rd overall) in the 1973 NHL Entry Draft (selected by current Red Wings Senior Vice-President Jim Devellano, the Islanders’ chief scout at the time). Lewis jumped from the junior ranks straight to the NHL and never played in the minor leagues. Dave’s biggest milestone came in a Red Wings uniform when he played in his 1,000th regular-season game April 1, 1987 against Philadelphia at Joe Louis Arena. In all, he played 1,008 regular-season games with the Islanders, Los Angeles, New Jersey and Detroit. He recorded 36 goals, 187 assists and 953 penalty minutes. He also appeared in 91 playoff games with one goal, 20 assists and 143 penalty minutes. Away from the rink, Dave is actively involved with the Make-A-Wish Foundation. Through his efforts over the past 12 years, the proceeds from the Dave Lewis Detroit Red Wings Fantasy Camp games and celebrity auctions have raised over $150,000 for the Make-A-Wish Foundation. In addition, Lewis often hosts children from the Make-A-Wish Foundation at Red Wing practices throughout the season. In past summers he has arranged trips to Russia for more than 30 campers and for fantasy hockey camps and historical tour.

Datsyuk lábadozik

Pavel Datsyuk, a Detroit Red Wings játékosa sikeres térdműtéten esett át a múlt héten.

Gary Greenstein, Datsyuk ügynöke a Detroit News-nak adott nyilatkozatában elmondta hogy a beavatkozás nem számított komoly műtétnek.

"Csak kicsit kitisztították a területet, ennyi az egész," mondta Greenstein. "Semmi komoly nem volt. Pár hét múlva Pavel 100%-os állapotban lesz."

Datsyuk várhatóan teljesen felépül a Világkupára ahol az Orosz csapatot fogja erősíteni.

Az orosz korongos karrierje legjobb évadát produkálta a Red Wings-ben, 30 lőtt góllal és 68 ponttal. Az idei évben 1,5 millió dollárt keresett, ám idén nyáron azonban korlátozott szabadügynökké vált úgyhogy minden bizonnyal némi emelésre számíthat a Detroittól amely nem szándékozik lemondani róla.

"Nagyon szereti Detroitot, és szeret Red Wing lenni. Nem tervez eligazolni máshova," mondta Greenstin.

Azonban ha úgy alakulnak a dolgok, és nem lesz megállapodás a Ligában, Datsyuk az Orosz Ligában érdekelt korábbi csapatánál (Ak Bars Kazan) fog játszani.

Chelios visszaterne

Chris Chelios nyilatkozata alapján szeretne visszatérni a következő évben is csapatához a Detroit Red Wings-hez.

A veterán korlátozás nélküli szabadügynökké válik a következő hónapban, azonban családi és üzleti érdekeltségei miatt nem tervezi elhagyni Detroitot.

"Ez nem kérdés, továbbra is Detroitban akarok játszani," mondta Chelios a Detroit News-nak. "Ez a város az otthonom és nagyon szeretem azt a csapatot amellyel itt együtt játszhatok."

Ken Holland, a Red Wings általános menedzsere még nem döntötte el hogy a csapat tesz-e ajánlatot Chelios-nak. Az új várható CBA értelmében a veterán hátvéd messze eddigi fizetése, azaz 6 millió dollár alatti ajánlatra számíthat klubjától.

Az amerikai korongost beválasztották az Egyesült Államok Világkupa csapatába és 42 évesen még messze nem gondolkodik a visszavonuláson.

"Addig a pontig amíg segíteni tudom a csapatomat játszani kívánok," mondta. "Van egy bizonyos szerep amelyet tökéletesen tudtam játszani eddig ebben a csapatban, és remélhetően még néhány évig képes leszek erre."

THROWING OCTOPI ONTO the ice have been a playoff tradition for a long time in Detroit. It all started with two brothers, Pete and Jerry Cusimano, owners of a fishshop.

The year was 1952. It was mid April and the Red Wings had beaten Toronto Maple Leafs and lead the series, 2-0. At that time it was enough with 8 wins to get the Cup, but no team had managed to win in 8 straigth games. Jerry brought an octopus and said: "Pete, this thing has eight arms. Why don't we throw it onto the ice and maybe Detroit will win in 8 straight?" Pete convinced him to boil it first to become easier to throw.

That night, Cusimano hid the octopus and put it under his chair in the arena. Right after Gordie Howe had scored Detroit's first goal, Cusimano took the octopus and threw it onto the ice and into hockey history.

The players didn't know what to do. On of the linesmen skated towards it but when he saw what it was he got scaired and left it there. Marcel Pronovost started to hit it with his stick. The crowd loved it and Detroit won the game as well as the rest of them.

Life went back to normal and Cusimano and his brother forgot about the whole thing until a few years later. Detroit had made the playoffs and a journalist wondered whether the octopi-throwing would happen again. So they did it again and it became a great tradition. [LGW]

DETROIT – What was your favorite moment from the 2003-04 season? Was it Brett Hull scoring his 732nd career goal? Or how about Pavel Datsyuk’s first All-Star Game appearance?

For the next week, DetroitRedWings.com will be tallying your votes on your favorite moment from the Red Wings past season. Vote as often as you’d like and we’ll post the results when the voting concludes next week.

Here’s a closer look at the nominees:

YZERMAN SCORES GAME-WINNER IS SEASON OPENER
October 10, 2003

Steve Yzerman showed he is not done yet.

Yzerman's goal with 1.7 seconds left capped the Detroit Red Wings' come-from-behind 3-2 season-opening win against the Los Angeles Kings.

Yzerman, playing in his 21st season, scored from the right circle off a pass from newcomer Ray Whitney after starting the rush in Detroit's end.

He scored two goals in 16 games last season after having an osteotomy -- a procedure that involved sawing into the bone below his right knee and using a wedge to realign the joint.

Yzerman, the most-adored athlete in Detroit, was given a rousing ovation before this game.

"My first thought was, 'I just don't want it to be booing by the third period,'" said Yzerman, who wasn't joking. "I just want to be able to play well. During the preseason, I felt pretty good about things at times and at others, I wasn't so sure."

RED WINGS SCORCH DUCKS 7-2 IN FEDOROV’S RETURN
December 3, 2003

Sergei Fedorov, who signed with Anaheim over the summer after 13 seasons with the Red Wings, scored a goal in his return to Detroit, but nothing else went right for the former Wings star.

Pavel Datsyuk had two goals and two assists, and the Red Wings spoiled Fedorov's homecoming with a 7-2 victory over the Anaheim Mighty Ducks.

HULL MOVES INTO THIRD PLACE ON GOAL LIST
December 8, 2003

Hull moved into third place on the NHL career goal list by scoring 1:51 into overtime during the Detroit Red Wings' 3-2 victory over the Los Angeles Kings.

His 732nd goal snapped a tie with Marcel Dionne and moved the Red Wings forward behind only Wayne Gretzky (894) and Gordie Howe (801). Hull, who also had an assist, one-timed a shot from the bottom of the left circle to give him a goal in his seventh straight game.

"Just to be there behind Wayne Gretzky and Gordie Howe, I can't put it into words," Hull said. "One guy is known as the greatest player ever and the other guy in known as Mr. Hockey."

DATSYUK NAMED TO WESTERN ALL-STAR TEAM
January 24, 2004

Pavel Datsyuk was named to the Western Conference's All-Star squad in January after compiling 22 goals and 26 assists during the season’s first half.

“The sky is the limit for this guy,” said forward Brett Hull, a frequent linemate of Datsyuk’s the last three seasons. “This kid has so much potential. He’s going to be fun to watch for a lot of years.”

Said Wings General Manager Ken Holland: “Before the season, Pavel was one of the young players we felt could handle more responsibility, more ice time, and he’s certainly responded.”

YZERMAN MOVES INTO SIXTH ON ALL-TIME SCORING LIST
January 30, 2004

Steve Yzerman moved past Mario Lemieux for sixth place on the NHL's career scoring list with his 1,702nd point in Detroit's 5-2 victory over the New Jersey Devils.

Yzerman assisted on Tomas Holmstrom's goal, which gave the Red Wings a 4-2 lead midway through the third period. When his feat was recognized by the public-address announcer, Yzerman stood and raised a hand to the crowd.

"Every time we make an announcement, I assume it's about Steve," Detroit coach Dave Lewis said. "It's pretty constant around here."

RED WINGS TRADE FOR ROBERT LANG
February 27, 2004

Adding a marquee player near the trade deadline has been a staple for the Red Wings over the past few years. This season was no different as general manager Ken Holland traded for center Robert Lang. At the time, Lang led the league in scoring and contributed right away by tallying three assists in his Red Wings’ debut on Feb. 29 against Philadelphia.

SHANAHAN LEADS THE WAY OVER NASHVILLE WITH THREE GOALS
March 14, 2004

All the Detroit Red Wings needed on March 14 was Brendan Shanahan.

Shanahan's third goal of the game, completing his 16th career hat trick, gave the Detroit Red Wings a 3-2 overtime win over the Nashville Predators.

"It's great for him and great for the team," said Detroit coach Dave Lewis. "Any time you have a hat trick, it's an exciting night."

RED WINGS CLINCH PRESIDENT’S TROPHY
April 1, 2004

Managing only 12 shots and leaning on a 30-year-old rookie goaltender, the Detroit Red Wings found a way to secure the NHL's regular-season points title.

Marc Lamothe had 26 saves in his second start of the season and Chris Chelios had two assists in the Red Wings' 3-2 victory over the St. Louis Blues.

Detroit’s 109 points put them three up on Tampa Bay with one game remaining apiece.

"The one thing about the President's Trophy is it's a tribute to the grind of the season," coach Dave Lewis said.
