There have been 27 head coaches of the Detroit Red Wings, a professional ice hockey team based in Detroit, Michigan. Of them, three were during the era of the Detroit Cougars (1926–1930) and Detroit Falcons (1930–1932) and the rest were under the Detroit Red Wings (1932–present). Six Red Wings coaches have been inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame as players: Jack Adams, Sid Abel, Bill Gadsby, Marcel Pronovost, Ted Lindsay, and Brad Park, with two others inducted as builders: Tommy Ivan and Scotty Bowman.
