Wings give Gordie Howe permanent locker at new arena

We lost Gordie Howe, or better known as “Mr. Hockey,” at the age of 88 back on June 10, 2016. 

However, despite his passing, the longtime NHL forward will forever have a place at the newly constructed Little Caesars Arena in the Motor City as the Detroit Red Wings has already provided Howe will his own locker.

Howe, who sported No. 9, appeared in 1,767 career NHL games, including 1,687 contests as a member of the Red Wings.

Lovely gesture by the team.
