Kirk Maltby has been selected by fans to appear in the 2012-13 Detroit Red Wings bobblehead series. Maltby was the fans’ choice in the third week of voting that ran through Aug. 19, 2012.

Including Steve Yzerman (automatic choice), Kris Draper (Week 1), Konstantinov (Week 2) and Maltby (Week 3), two other alumni players will be featured in the 2012-13 Detroit Red Wings Bobblehead series. Over the next two weeks, a new alumni member will be unveiled each Monday.

“Last year’s Operation: Bobblehead campaign was a huge success and we’re looking forward to seeing which former players our fans select to be included as part of this season’s promotion,” says Olympia Entertainment President & CEO Tom Wilson. “In conjunction with December’s SiriusXM Hockeytown Winter Festival Alumni Showdown™ at Comerica Park, we’re very much looking forward to celebrating our past and honoring some of the men who have helped make Detroit the very best hockey market in the country in 2012-13.”

Operation Bobblehead: Alumni Edition is a multi-week online voting campaign to determine which bobbleheads will be distributed at select home games during the 2012-13 season. Three-time Stanley Cup champion Steve Yzerman will be the first bobblehead appearing in the hands of 7,500 lucky fans at Joe Louis Arena. The remaining five bobbleheads will be chosen through a week-by-week voting campaign on DetroitRedWings.com. Voting begins every Tuesday at 12:01 PM and closes the following Sunday at noon.
