Across Michigan, winter hockey nights are anchored by one unmistakable emblem: the crimson-and-white Winged Wheel glowing above Woodward Avenue at Little Caesars Arena. The Detroit Red Wings Legends and Stars 2026 Advent Calendar brings that Original Six Hockeytown tradition to your holiday table, pairing a rigid paperboard countdown box with 24 freestanding three-dimensional miniatures revealed one morning at a time from December 1 through Christmas Eve.

Inside the 24 Winged Wheel Compartments: From Captain #71 to Little Caesars Arena
Days 1 through 8 open the countdown with eight freestanding chibi-style skaters mounted on circular black display bases. Each figure wears the Red Wings’ crimson home sweater with crisp white sleeve stripes, sculpted hockey gloves, white-bladed skates, and a stick held across the ice. The front sweater numbers salute the core players who lead Detroit onto the ice at Little Caesars Arena: Michigan-born Captain Dylan Larkin (#71 C, Day 1), center Andrew Copp (#18, Day 2), first-line winger Lucas Raymond (#23, Day 3), Calder Trophy-winning defenseman Moritz Seider (#53, Day 4), sniper Alex DeBrincat (#93, Day 5), veteran alternate captain and blue-liner Ben Chiarot (#8 A, Day 6), two-way center J.T. Compher (#37, Day 7), and fan-favorite Red Wings sweater #14 (Robby Fabbri / Brendan Shanahan tribute, Day 8).
From Day 9 through Day 17, the daily compartments expand the tabletop rink with miniature equipment, stadium architecture, and cold-weather Hockeytown gear. Doors 9 through 12 reveal a crimson goalie helmet with a silver cage and Winged Wheel decal (Day 9), a black Red Wings hockey puck (Day 10), a crimson #1 foam finger (Day 11), and a snow-rimmed architectural replica of Little Caesars Arena bordered by miniature holiday evergreens (Day 12). Mid-month doors add a freestanding Winged Wheel crest standee on a silver pedestal base (Day 13), a crimson home jersey miniature (Day 14), a red-and-white striped knit-look pom beanie (Day 15), a fringed RED WINGS winter scarf (Day 16), and a white ceramic-look mini coffee mug printed with the team crest (Day 17).

The closing week from Day 18 through December 24 rounds out the display with mascot, championship, and wearable pieces. Collectors uncover a brown bear mascot figure in a crimson #00 sweater and cap giving a thumbs-up (Day 18), a metallic-silver Stanley Cup trophy replica (Day 19), a crimson-and-white team duffle bag (Day 20), a cheerleader figure shaking glittery red pom-poms (Day 21), a triangular DETROIT RED WINGS pennant flag on a black base (Day 22), a wearable white #71 RED WINGS road jersey keychain honoring Dylan Larkin with a gold split ring (Day 23), and a miniature RED WINGS snow globe ornament with a top hanging loop on Day 24.
