For the 24th time The Detroit Red Wing Alumni took on a local squad of amateur MI-UCP supporters - the brave and incredible MI-UCP Pucksters. The final score was Alumi 9 and Pucksters 2 but it was a hard fought battle.

TAKE A LOOK AT THE PICTURES FROM THE 2026 GAME

 

With a roster featuring names such as Darren McCarty, Justin Abdelkader, John Ogrodnick, Dino Ciccarelli, Derian Hatcher, Joe Kocur and fan-favorite Mickey Redmond, The Detroit Red Wing Alumni Association (the oldest such organization in the NHL) brings former NHL players together for a common goal: to raise spirits and raise money for some wonderful organizations like MI-UCP. Every year, we are more and more grateful for their support. 

 

In addition to the Alumni game, there was also the Sled Hockey Game, where some amazing athletes from the Metro Detroit Sled Hockey Program played against a team of able-bodied supporters - the MI-UCP Sledsters.

There's was a 50-50 raffle and a Chuck-a-Puck contest with great prizes!

It was fun day for the whole family benefitting the 2.4 million Michiganders with disabilities. For this year, we have raised nearly $42,000 and over the past 24 events, we have raised nearly $750,000 with the proceeds going directly to MI-UCP's programs and services focused on closing the disability divide.
