20 seasons, the NHL record as of now. He was named Captain in 1986 and held the title and wore the C until he retired in July of 2006. For his skills, talent, passion, and leadership, and his memorable moments on and off the ice, the people of Detrroit call him "The Captain". He is, and always will be, the GREATEST captain of all time. :)
