Detroit Red Wings

The Detroit Red Wings are a hockey team based in Detroit, Michigan. They play in the Atlantic Division of the Eastern Conference of the National Hockey League (NHL). As hockey is one of the most popular sports in Detroit, it has the nickname "Hockeytown". The Red Wings are one of the original six teams of the NHL, and have won the Stanley Cup 11 times, most recently in 2007-2008. The Red Wings played at the Joe Louis Arena, named after a heavyweight boxer from Detroit from 1979-2017. The Red Wings moved to a newly built Little Caesars Arena in late 2017 where they currently play their games.
