Detroit was granted an expansion franchise in 1926.

The new Detroit team purchased the players of the WHL Victoria Cougars and adopted their nickname in honor of the folded franchise. Their red and white striped jersey is still worn by the Wings on special occasions (e.g. Winter Classic). In 1930 the team was renamed the Detroit Falcons. In 1932, the team was bought by James Norris, who had played for the Montreal HC "Winged Wheelers" around the turn of the century.

Total goals scored in a Stanley cup game?

If you mean by an individual player , the number is 5, done by five different players. Most goals by one team was by Edmonton Oilers, when they scored 13 on Apr. 9, 1987. The most goals by two teams was 18 when Los Angeles beat Edmonton 10-8 on Apr. 7, 1982. To check all NHL playoff records, I suggest you Google "NHL Playoff Records" and read related pages shown.

Pre-NHL, the most goals scored in a single Stanley Cup playoff game by a single player is 14, scored by Frank McGee in a 1905 playoff game pitting his team, Ottawa Senators, against the Dawson City Nuggets. That game also holds the Pre-NHL record for most goals in a single game for a team, 23.

It should also be noted that Frank was blind in one eye when he played for Ottawa, as he lost vision in that eye in an amateur hockey game in 1900.
