The move would work as the Red Wings double their win total finishing in 2nd place with a 34-36-10 record. In the playoffs the Red Wings would make quick work of the Chicago Blackhawks sweeping them in 4 straight to reach their first Norris Division Final. In a Norris Division Final match up of resurgent teams the Red Wings overcome a 3-1 deficit to beat the Toronto Maple Leafs in 7 games to reach their first Conference Finals. In the Campbell Conference Finals the Red Wings take Game 1 by a score of 3-1 stunning the Oilers in Edmonton. However, the superior Oilers would roar back winning 4 straight on the way to their 3rd Stanley Cup in 4 years.
