The Detroit Red Wings are marking their centennial with a four-day fan festival in downtown Detroit, giving fans the chance to meet current and former players while celebrating a century of hockey history.
The celebration kicked off Thursday at Motor City Casino, featuring exhibits, autograph sessions and memorabilia from the team's 100-year legacy in Hockeytown.
"It's incredible to see the history of 100 years," said Ryan McIntire, a Red Wings fan attending the event.
Jim McBroom, another longtime fan, was equally impressed by the scope of the celebration.
"It's really mind boggling and touching to see how far back this goes," McBroom said.
The festival showcases Stanley Cup trophies, vintage equipment and jerseys from legendary players, including the Russian Five. Fans can view Red
