Holy shit it's all pained by HAND?!?! They even hand painted the branding on the ice!! That's badass! I'm a Leafs fan but mad respect to the Red Wings Ice Crew!

Red Wings supplying us with goosebumps AND tingles now.

Great video. Thanks for showing the behind the scenes stuff as a way of acknowledging some of the most important people that wouldnt get the recognition they deserve otherwise. Well done team.

I love these behind the scenes / no commentary videos. DRW youtube channel, ya'll are leading the way with this stuff, love it!!

How many times do we have to say put the darn "HockeyTown" at center Ice again Red Wings?

Hockeytown is over, come up with something better? It’s a thing of the past

The painting by hands, even with the lines to help, always blows my mind. I have trouble staying in the lines for stuff but to do it on this big of a scale and not being able to screw it up....great job.

real goal horn please

Knights fan here. Just excited for the season to start! This gave me the goosebumps.

So amazing. As a parent of a player who has a seasonal arena, I volunteer to help set up/take down our rink every year, watching this blows my mind. We don’t paint, we have the roll up material for everything. I can’t imagine having the patience for this.

Now this is the content I am here for

So satisfying. Can't wait to watch this year's group!

That's so funny they made an ASMR video, lol. Very cool

It’s surprising that the majority of it is done by hand. Well done.

it is so satisfying to watch. Thank you! Didn´t know, it is all painted by hand. Amazing skills!

funny i've done this before at a college rink. Being one of the hose guys inevitably you end up trying to wiggle the hose to get the next guy off balance to fight the boredom.

LFG 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Whatever you're paying these lads, double it! (Except Virgil, unless he apologized) The respect and dedication that they are showing to this iconic logo is inspiring.

When I retire this is what I wanna do. Looks so relaxing.

Hasn't been there since they moved to the new rink... which is understandable, our current performance doesn't scream "Hockeytown"... perhaps in a few more years, we can earn the title again.

back in 2008. let it die

I have always been amazed that they do the painting by hand. I would never be able to paint straight lines like that. The rink would be a mess 😂😂😂

This is pretty cool

I never tire of watching this. I've always wondered why they don't use decals and pre-printed designs like they do for the red lines...

THATS SWEET

I hear the goal horns already lgrw 🐙🚨🐙🚨🐙🚨

oh yeah that's the stuff

Thats the sexiest red line ive ever seen!

Bro no way they can make perfect circles and perfect everything first try every time. There is some sort of helper or tracer on the ice for sure

@chaotic4267

If you look close enough you can see the pre marked lines before they start painting

It's still funny to me that the reason this video was created was because the Winged Wheel Podcast asked for it.

Cool Go on 👍🏻

Its kinda hard to believe that in 2023 theres not a more efficient way to do this then a paint brush taped to a stick. But mad respect to the guys that do

actaully quite a lot of teams doesnt do it by hands. A lot of the teams use something like stickers. For example look at NHL page of blues they have a video called: 360: Making ice (it was made in september 7th) they do not paint. Id say there is some kind of prestige having it hand painted Other team i know for certain doesnt paint it is Boston Bruins, Arizona Coyotes.

ITS TIIIIME!!!! 😁

is that first layer white paint?

/Does this happen every time the ice is out?

Do a asmr for the first skate on the ice, please

It really is amazing! Some things, robots cant do

I'm 50 years old, and I still can't color inside the lines.......

How many times a season do they paint this?

Paint white over it and try again

And the goal horn is a recording

Wouldn't it be easier for things like the logo to just use like a giant stencil and just fill it in rather than trying to free hand it?

@chettajohnson5261

It's not freehand... you can see the outline to fill in. Do you mean hand painted?

Does anyone know if Virgil ever apologized?? 😂

cool now write HOCKEYTOWN over it

U.P. for statehood or secession if we don't make the playoffs in a few years .
