Little Caesars Arena Opening Night — October 5, 2017, Inaugural Season Commemorative Canvas (Detroit Red Wings)
October 5, 2017. The first game ever played at Little Caesars Arena.
This is the official commemorative canvas distributed to fans on Opening Night — bold red with the full Little Caesars Arena inaugural season crest centered on the face, the winged wheel and puck logo surrounded by the LCA shield, and the text: Opening Night · October 5, 2017. Sponsored by Meijer and Coca-Cola, whose logos appear at the bottom — exactly as they appeared in the building that night.
Little Caesars Arena replaced Joe Louis Arena after 38 years. The Olympia before that. Every generation of Detroit hockey fans has had their building — and this canvas marks the moment the current one began.
Made to hang. Display it as-is or frame it — this is a wall piece, a genuine Opening Night artifact from one of the most significant dates in modern Detroit hockey history. Stored flat. Excellent condition.
