The team announced today that they have entered an ad partnership and that ads will be coming to the team's jerseys shortly. There will be an announcement tomorrow revealing who the sponsorship is.

Fans of the team are obviously not happy about this. Given how iconic the Red Wings jersey is, most fans were hoping the team would avoid an ad partnership deal as an ad could ruin the aesthetics of the team.
Many fans called out Red Wings owner Chris Ilitch for the selfish move.
