Editor's Notes
The Detroit Red Wings are an Original Six team, which means they have been around since the dawn of the NHL. Being an Original Six franchise comes with a lot of expectations and a lot of loyal fans that have been cheering for the team since the womb. The big picture for this strategy would be to generate an expansion of the fan base while still holding steady with the history of the franchise.
Linking the Red Wings team Twitter account with the player twitter accounts will create more of a relationship with fans.
