Detroit – There was a small group of fans – all wearing Red Wings gear – heading into Little Caesars Arena for the game against Ottawa on Friday night.
It was a matchup between two bad teams – really bad, in the Red Wings’ case – but that didn’t dampen the fans’ enthusiasm.
Jarad Southam, 24, from Wayne – wearing an Anthony Mantha jersey – and his three buddies could have been watching the game from home, or at a sports bar or restaurant.
