Open Skate is an official Red Wings fan organization. Get together at local bars to watch the Red Wings with a different type of hockey fan. Package includes Red Wings tickets and a FREE party bus ride to and from the Joe plus drink specials at 5 local bars--all for only $30!  

But right now we're working with Open Skate to give away pairs of tickets to 4 lucky winners for their February 14th game against the Dallas Stars! What a perfect Valentine's Day!

All you have to do to enter is comment on this post with your favorite Wings player. If you don't have one, no worries--just tell us why you want to go!. Contest ends on Tuesday, February 7th at 11:59pm and we'll announce the winner on Wednesday, February 8th. We will choose a winner at random.

2/1/2012 Julie "to the point" H. says:

2/1/2012 Mickie "The Food Snob" W. says:

My husband LOVES hockey :)

2/1/2012 Matt "the endless pit" G. says:

Datsyuk!

2/1/2012 Kal "FitNHealthyKal" B. says:

We like them ALL - I have a Datsyuk jersey, my husband has Zetterberg. We should win because we are military and this is our last season here and we can't think of a better way to spend Valentine's Day! THAT is how much we love the Wings and Hockeytown!!!!!

2/1/2012 Evie "Burkie" B. says:

I don't have a 'favorite", but want to go because I've NEVER been to a Red Wings game! :(

2/1/2012 Heather "Seeking my way to Europe" J. says:

Mmmm, give me a Datsyuk all the way. I'm a Canadian -- and a Canucks fan -- who rooted for Detroit anyways. If that isn't conversion and love, I don't know what is. I'll never get to a Red Wings game any other way what with all you season's ticket holders! ;)

2/1/2012 Vanessa W. says:

Jimmy Howard, he has cat like reflexes!

2/1/2012 Kris "Seizon-sha" A. says:

Datzyuk & Zetterburgh. I'm hoping to win so I can surprise my wife, who is a huge Wings fan!

Zetterberg.

2/1/2012 colette "cn327" n. says:

Ted Lindsey.  He grabbed my a$$ when I was getting a picture taken with him.  Awesome.  A current Red Wing can't compare to that.  And I'd want to leave from Danny's!

2/1/2012 Lisa "Cover it in chocolate or bacon" M. says:

my favorite player will always be yzerman. when i was younger I was obsessed with all things yzerman and was convinced we were meant to be because his wife's name is lisa (same as me). one year i bought a new bike and then i realized it was called the avalanche - we lost to them in the finals not soon afterwards. i wrote him a letter explaining how sorry i was.

winning this would mean so much to me, i love the red wings and would love to take my husband to the game - i'm unemployed right now and would love to give him such an awesome gift for v-day.

2/1/2012 Peggah "peggahtron" G. says:

I used to have a crush on Mark Knuble. He hasn't been a red wing for a LONG time, but yeahhh. I would love to go to the red wings game because I'll already be wearing red :D

2/1/2012 Christy "Arizona bound" R. says:

You had me at party bus....as I am responsible

2/1/2012 Jenee "get yo' own checkstub" M. says:

I do not have a favorite player but I love, love, love hockey. In fact, I am not a sports fan but can get down with some hockey for sure. Plus, this night sounds A-M-A-Z-I-N-G!!

2/1/2012 Jennifer "can I try that?" L. says:

Zetterberg... but probably Datsyuk

2/1/2012 Nina "5K Rookie" M. says:

Reason why I want to go: this would be my 1st hockey game!!

2/1/2012 Lynn H. says:

My favorite is Datsyuk.  Hubby's is Zetterberg.  I sure hope we win!

Bertuzzi!!!! LET'S GO RED WINGS!!!!!!

2/1/2012 Alex P. says:

My fiancé and I just moved here from California. Never been to a hockey game. Never experienced a Midwest winter -- well, if you call this winter. We're here for at least five more years, so a Red Wings game would help us figure out what the excitement is all about. And hey, it's on Valentines Day, what better way to spend it with the woman I love.

2/1/2012 Caroline C. says:

Lidstrom!! :)

2/2/2012 Dan "Mr. D-LuX" O. says:

My wife an I haven't had a chance to go anywhere since our son was born a few months ago!!! This is literally the first time we'll have a baby sitter for the night! Oh and Datsyuk rools!

2/2/2012 Valerie G. says:

Zetterberg, please and thank you.

2/2/2012 Becki "B-squared" B. says:

Haven't had much time to watch with kids underfoot, but going to the game would be a FABULOUS treat for hubby and I - our sixth anniversary is the same week as well!!

Tough to pick just one, but Holmstrom is my sentimental favorite. Go Wings!

2/3/2012 Katie "Not Confrontational" D. says:

Lidstrom! When I worked at Hudson's (back when it WAS Hudson's) I sold him a pair of dress shoes. He was a really nice guy!

2/3/2012 Jean "beer me" P. says:

Holmstrom!!! I'd hate him if I were a goalie on any other team in the league - but since he's workin for us, I love him!!!

2/4/2012 Debbie "Ginger" H. says:

With all due respect to current Red Wings ... number 19 ... the greatest, most iconic Winged Wheeler of all time ... Steve Yzerman!!

2/7/2012 Jennifer "the jenninator!" V. says:

holmstrom, without a doubt!!! i'm originally from the SF bay area, have NEVER liked the sharks & am a huge wings fan; i wanted to go to the wings/sharks game but can't make it, so the stars came is close enough!!

Sorry I missed this contest!  My husband has always wanted to go to a pro - hockey game. And he is very good at planning something special for Valentine's Day, so it would have been great to have won tickets for me to take him to something special. Talk about a suprise!  Good luck everybody.
