Friday (1/27) @ 6:30pm – The Microsoft Theatre
The NHL100: Celebrating its centennial anniversary, the League will reveal the 100 greatest NHL players of all time at this star-studded event.
Actor Jon Hamm will host what is being billed as the largest gathering ever of hockey legends. Grammy winner John Legend and recording artists Robin Thick and John Ondrasik will join Hamm as co-hosts for the evening.
Thicke, in honor of his late father Alan who was a longtime hockey fan, will present a special In Memoriam that pays tribute to the late members of the 100 Greatest NHL Players.
In order to avoid any controversy, the League will announce the players in no particular order. Former players, journalists and a panel of executives cast ballots in the voting process.
Tickets for the events can be purchased here.
The NHL100 will be broadcast live from the Microsoft Theatre at 6:30pm PT / 9:30pm ET on NBCSN in the US and Sportsnet and TVAS in Canada.
