Having the league's best regular-season record, they were awarded the Presidents' Trophy.

The Red Wings dominated the first three rounds of the 1995 NHL Playoffs, going 12–2 and outscoring their opponents 54–28 during that span. On Sunday June 11, the Red Wings advanced to the Stanley Cup Final, their first Finals appearance since 1966 with a 2–1 double-overtime victory against the Chicago Blackhawks in game five of the 1995 Western Conference Final. Forward Vyacheslav Kozlov scored the game-winner at 2:25 of the second overtime period.
The Red Wings were stunned in the 1995 Stanley Cup Final in four-game sweep at the hands of the underdog New Jersey Devils, whose neutral-zone trap system held Detroit to just seven goals in the series.
