The 2012–13 Detroit Red Wings season was the 87th season for the National Hockey League (NHL) franchise that was established on September 25, 1926. The regular season was reduced from its usual 82 games to 48 due to a lockout. This was the first time in a long time that the Red Wings did not have Nicklas Lidstrom on their roster, lost to retirement. Henrik Zetterberg was appointed as team captain.

As of 2024, this is the most recent season that the Red Wings won a playoff series.

Off-season

[edit]

On May 31, 2012, defenseman Nicklas Lidstrom announced his retirement from the NHL after 20 seasons.[2] Lidstrom won four Stanley Cups and seven Norris Trophies during his Hall of Fame career, all with the Red Wings.
