A swag of Stanley Cup championships

Having originally formed as the Detroit Cougars, the franchise changed its name once more to the Falcons before settling on the Red Wings in 1932. One of the most successful teams in the history of the NHL, the Red Wings won their first Stanley Cup trophy in 1936 against the Toronto Maple Leafs and would add another six titles by 1955. Considered to be one of the best ice hockey players of all time, Gordie Howe represented the Red Wings for an astonishing 25 seasons, during which he was part of four championship winning teams. During his career, Howe was awarded the Hart Memorial Trophy, a recognition of the league's most valuable player, six times. Following his retirement, Howe was honoured with the Order of Canada for his contribution to the country and the sport of ice hockey. The Red Wings experienced a few rough decades following their 1955 victory, however returned to prominence in fashion with consecutive Stanley Cup wins in 1997 and 1998. Guided by the extremely well-respected Steve Yzerman, the team also went on to win the 2002 trophy against the Carolina Hurricanes. A born leader, Yzerman was captain for twenty of his twenty-three seasons with the team! Grab your Detroit Red Wings tickets on StubHub to see the famous club in action.

The meaning behind the flying wheel

The Red Wings received their name from prominent businessman and former owner James Norris. Norris adapted the flying wheel logo and subsequent name from the Montreal Hockey Club, known as the Winged Wheelers, which he was a member of in his younger years. The Red Wings have gone on to develop a considerable rivalry with the Montreal Canadiens, having faced off against them numerous times in the Stanley Cup Finals. Playing their home games at Little Caesars Arena in Midtown Detroit, the team has a passionate and devoted fan base.
