The Toronto Maple Leafs have made an exciting announcement: they're postponing the start of tonight's game to honor Captain John Tavares.
Celebrating Tavares' Milestone: Leafs Postpone Game Start for 1000th Point Ceremony
This special ceremony is to celebrate Tavares' remarkable achievement of reaching 1000 career points. He will be joined on the ice by his entire family before the game.
Update: The Leafs will be honouring Captain John Tavares tonight for reaching 1,000 career points last week in New York. Tavares and his family will be honoured with a ceremony pre game.
Tavares, who has become only the 98th player in NHL history to reach this impressive milestone, scored his 1000th point against the Islanders last week.
Tonight, the Leafs will play against the Rangers. Make sure to tune in early to watch the ceremony!
