The Detroit Red Wings posted something of a, “Welcome back, everybody!” press release this afternoon:
As you may have seen, the NHL provided an exciting update on the 2021 start date today, and we are thrilled that Red Wings hockey is back!
The regular season is scheduled to start on January 13, with Training Camp permitted to open as early as December 31. We expect our complete schedule to be announced soon, so stay tuned!
Please note that we continue to work with local and state government officials, and public health experts, regarding the possibility and timing of hosting fans at Little Caesars Arena this season. We will provide more clarity and details as specific information becomes available.
We can’t wait to see you back at Little Caesars Arena as soon as possible. In the meantime, please follow and engage with us on social media @DetroitRedWings and online at DetroitRedWings.com, and watch us all season long on Fox Sports Detroit!
Thank you for your ongoing support, Hockeytown.

Detroit Red Wings
