The Detroit Red Wings have been a team that has had a knack for drafting players that everyone seems to miss. They seem to find players that no one is willing to take a chance on then end up taking a chance on.

More times than not it works out for them. So I thought to make a list of the 5 best Red Wings draft steals. These are players not taken in the first round and players that seemed to come out of nowhere to have success with either the Red Wings or in the NHL.
