Hockey Night In Westland





Proceeds fcrom the game benefit the Mike Modano Ice Arena in Westland.











     The Detroit Red Wings Alumni will invade the Mike Modano Ice Arena tonight to battle the Westland Wild Wings in a charity game beginning at 7:00 p.m.  The goal is to raise money for improvements to the Mike Modano Ice Arena.  The Westland Wild Wings roster consists of local officials lead by the Mayor of Westland William R.Wild.
     The Detroit Red Wings Alumni includes recently retired players such as Chris Chelios, Kirk Maltby, Kris Draper, Darren McCarty, Chris Osgood, Igor Larionov, and Dino Ciccarelli.  The roster also includes an earlier generation of players such as Joey Kocur, Petr Klima, Jimmy Carson, and Shawn Burr.  The team even has greats from before my time like Gordy Howe, Ted Lindsey, and Alex Delveccio.  Tickets are still available, ($10 for adults, $5 for kids, free for children 3 and under) but it is expected to sell out.  The two teams met last year and the Red Wings Alumni defeated the Westland Wild Wings 8-1.
     If you can't make it out to Westland tonight you can still watch the Detroit Red Wings Alumni play all over the state of Michigan.  Last month they were in Cheboygan, and later this month they'll be in Brighton, Hartland, Hazel Park, and Dearborn.  Click on the link below for more information about the Detroit Red Wings Alumni.
