But Sid Abel, Lindsay’s old linemate, took over as Red Wings coach in 1964. He rejoined the Red Wings as No. Lindsay had 14 goals and 14 assists that year, and Campbell apologized after the Red Wings won the season championship. We are comforted in knowing that the Ted Lindsay legacy will forever be a part of history and are so proud of the many lives he helped change for the better through his tireless humanitarian work.
