GORDIE HOWE CARES
THE PRO-AM
MAY 22-24, 2026
The Pro-Am hockey tournament is three action-packed days where local weekend-warriors come together with NHL Alumni in a friendly battle of bragging rights, all in the name of a great cause.
THE EVENT
The Pro-am weekend action begins Friday with our Luncheon and Hot Stove Lounge.
This year’s luncheon event celebrates 100 years of the Detroit Red Wings!
One of the original-six, the Detroit Red Wings own some of the most exciting stories in the game, are home to some of biggest names to hit the ice, and are a team synonymous with Gordie’s own milestone NHL career.
The weekend kick-off continues into the evening at the Pro-Am Draft Night held at The Rooftop on 4th. With two full days of competition on the line, the draft order is determined by team fundraising totals.
Get ready — the more a team raises, the higher they move up in the order to select their favourite NHL Alumni!
HIT THE ICE
With teams decided, Saturday and Sunday bring two days of non-stop, on-ice action where local weekend-warriors come together with many NHL Alumni in a friendly battle of bragging rights, all in the name of a great cause.
