The doors to the hockey arena will open at 11:00 a.m.

Schmidt graduated from Cathedral. He played college hockey at the University of Minnesota and broke into the NHL in 2013 with the Washington Capitals. Over his 12-year career, Schmidt has also played for the Vegas Knights, Vancouver Canucks, Winnipeg Jets and the Panthers. In July, he signed a three-year deal with the Utah Mammoth.
