Yeah they can't lose Lidstrom and not take a step backwards even with all the great players they still have but Detroit is the blue print pro teams follow in how to develop your players and keep your team elite for many years. Even pro teams in other sports study how Detroit operates from the main office to the ice to the minors. They are the modern playbook for efficiency.
The Hawks have modeled themselves after Detroit. New Jersey, New York (both teams), Boston to name a few, they all follow the Wings structure.
