EDITORIAL: The Red Wings should definitely retire Sergei Fedorov’s number

It’s a debate that’s raged on for years now, and has been reignited with the announcement of Red Kelly’s jersey retirement. Should the Detroit Red Wings retire Sergei Fedorov’s jersey number? If you ask me, the answer is a resounding “yes”.

Let’s go over the reasons why.

Fedorov is in the top ten of multiple all-time Red Wings records

There’s no question that Fedorov was a skilled player. In the 1993-94 season with the Red Wings, he posted 56 goals and 64 assists for an astounding 120 points in 82 games. Those are some beyond all-star numbers. He was an integral part of Detroit’s offense for almost his entire time on the team. Let’s take a look at his career scoring with Detroit (this is most definitely a list, so bear with me):

*deep breath*

4th in goals scored (400)

7th in assists (554)

6th in points (954)

5th in goals created (365.7)

2nd in career plus-minus (plus-276)

5th in even-strength goals (252)

5th in power play goals (117)

2nd in shorthanded goals (31)

3rd in game-winning goals (79)

5th in shots (3148)

T-7th in hat tricks (6)

8th in goals per game (0.44)

5th in assists per game (0.61)

4th in points per game (1.05)

7th in goals created per game (0.40)

*sharp inhale*

Impressive, no? Fedorov was an offense machine, but don’t take that to mean he was a one-dimensional player. Sergei was just as good without the puck as he was with. In fact, as an offensive forward, he had the ability to play the defense position as well because his two-way play was so good. He could basically do it all.
