Playoffs
The Red Wings dominated the first three rounds of the 1995 NHL playoffs, going 12–2 and outscoring their opponents 54–28 during that span. On Sunday, June 11, the Red Wings advanced to the Stanley Cup Finals for the first time since 1966 with a thrilling 2–1 double-overtime victory against the Chicago Blackhawks in Game 5 of the 1995 Western Conference Finals. Forward Vyacheslav Kozlov scored the game-winner at 2:25 of the second overtime period.
However, the Red Wings were stunned in the 1995 Stanley Cup Finals, suffering a four-game sweep at the hands of the underdog New Jersey Devils, whose neutral-zone trap system held Detroit to just seven goals in the series.
