Alex Delvecchio spent his entire NHL career as a member of the Red Wings from 1950/51 to 1973/74, serving as team captain for 12 full seasons, surpassed in Wings history only by Steve Yzerman.
Well-know for his work on “Production Line II”, Delvecchio took the place of Sid Abel, playing on a line with “Mr. Hockey” Gordie Howe and “Terrible” Ted Lindsay. The three gifted forwards led the Red Wings to three straight Stanley Cup Championships including back-to-back Stanley Cup Championships in 1954 and 1955.
