Connections: The impact of the Red Wings in Rochester

The Red Wings are staying in Rochester. The county and the team announced a ten-year deal at a news conference on Monday. This comes as a relief to fans who were worried about the team’s future in Rochester, and the possibility of having two empty stadiums in the city.

We discuss the deal and how a team like the Red Wings impacts the community. Our guests:
