Brendan Shanahan Toledo Storm

The 2000–01 Detroit Red Wings season was the 75th season of the Detroit franchise in the National Hockey League (NHL). The Red Wings qualified for the 2001 Stanley Cup playoffs] by finishing first in the Central Division, and second overall in the Western Conference, but the team and much of the hockey world were shocked as their opponent in the first round of the playoffs, the seventh-seeded Los Angeles Kings, defeated them in six games.

Regular season

The Red Wings scored the most power-play goals in the NHL during the regular season, with 85.

On April 1, 2001, Steve Yzerman scored just 11 seconds into the overtime period to give the Wings a 2–1 home win over the Washington Capitals. It would prove to be the fastest overtime goal scored during the 2000–01 regular season.

Final standings

Playoffs

The Detroit Red Wings ended the 2000–01 regular season as the Western Conference's second seed and played the seventh-seeded Los Angeles Kings in the Conference Quarterfinals. Detroit was defeated 4 games to 2, despite winning the first two games at home.
