Red Wings prospect Carter Bear will be honored by his Peguis First Nation chief and council in a public reception today between 12-1 PM Central Daylight Time at the Peguis Multiplex, about two hours north of Winnipeg, Manitoba.

I can’t embed it, but here’s a video link to Chief Stan Bird speaking with the CTV News Winnipeg regarding the event, and the example that Bear’s already setting as an 18-year-old.

As is predictable of a small-town event, they’re serving free hot wings at the reception. Cute.
