A good cause comes to Joe Louis Arena on October 10th. While the Red Wings take on Alexander Ovechkin and the Washington Capitals, the Wings will also be raising money to fight cancer off the ice.
The night’s events have yet to be released, but Coach Mike Babcock and commentators will wear the famous lavender stripped ties that have come to symbolize the Hockey Fights Cancer movement.
The NHL is hoping for fans to dig deep, and will be releasing a line of clothing in an effort to raise funds for the cause. There’s no doubt in my mind that the Wings will also be auctioning off game worn, and signed, items to support the effort.
To date, the NHL has raised over $10 million dollars to fight cancer.
