JACKSON, Mich. (WILX) - Detroit Red Wings forward and Jackson native Carter Mazur hasn’t spent much time in the NHL yet, but he’s already giving back to the Jackson community. Mazur, 23, coached at a youth 3-on-3 hockey tournament in Jackson on Saturday and signed autographs for young hockey players afterward.

“It’s easy to give back to this community,” Mazur said. “It’s done a lot for me, so it’s pretty easy to give back and help out the little kids. I did this [tournament] when I was the same age as them and did it my whole Jackson career. It’s something I’ve grown up doing, and to see the kids out there, it’s just a special feeling.”
