The Detroit Red Wings’ home, Little Caesars Arena, is set to be taken over by another professional hockey franchise.
It’s not the Canucks, but it will be the Vancouver PWHL franchise.
The action should be exciting, as we get to see multiple PWHL teams on the ice:
“At Little Caesars Arena on January 3 and again on March 28, fans will see two marquee matchups: the Vancouver Goldeneyes, making their debut season, facing the Boston Fleet, followed by the New York Sirens taking on the Montréal Victoire”.
The PWHL Begins Its Takeover Tour Once More with the Detroit Red Wings, A Prominent Fixture
The Detroit Red Wings are an original six hockey team in the NHL that is generous enough to offer up their home in order to continue growing the sport of hockey.
Accommodating the PWHL, this will allow the team’s brand to flourish as a backdrop to an upstart professional hockey league.
“The league’s announcement confirms that the tour will feature 16 games in 11 cities for the 2025-26 season. The previous season, 2024-25, drew more than 123,000 fans across nine games. Holding a game in Detroit is seen as both a celebration of the sport and a market test, especially with support from the Detroit Red Wings organization, which highlights how NHL cities can become strong supporters of women’s professional hockey.”
The Goldeneyes will be a part of a league that is growing fast and includes teams from New York, Boston, Toronto, Ottawa, Montreal, and Minnesota.
