Detroit Red Wings Stanley Cup Champion Player  ~ 1950 ~ 1952 ~ 1955 ~ 1955
During his NHL career, Wilson scored 161 goals and 171 assists in 688 regular season games and 27 points in 66 playoff games. He won four Stanley Cups with the Red Wings and appeared in two all-star games (1954, 1956). One of his most notable accomplishments was playing in 580 consecutive games from 1951 to 1960, making him the "Iron Man" of the NHL's Original Six Team League.

Johnny Wilson was also Coach of the 1971 Calder Cup Champions ~ Springfield Kings                           The team just squeaked into the playoffs with a losing record -- winning a one-game playoff with the Quebec Aces to do it -- and rampaged to Springfield's fourth Calder Cup Championship with a sparkling 11-1 playoff record, led by future NHL star center Butch Goring and Hockey Hall of Fame goaltender Billy Smith and sweeping a shellshocked Providence Reds squad. The 1971 Kings were, and remain, the team with the poorest regular season record ever to win the Calder Cup.

Rest in Peace Johnny Wilson
