The Ducks will host an outdoor watch party on Jan. 21 at Honda Center, an event that will pay tribute to a century of NHL hockey and will feature the NHL's Centennial Fan Arena. The exhibit includes an NHL Museum truck, the Stanley Cup, a never-before-seen Zamboni virtual reality exhibit and ball hockey rink.
The 53-foot NHL museum will feature an interactive interior with original video content, exclusive memorabilia, and fan activations. Fans will have the opportunity to interact and see one-of-a-kind items from key events in Anaheim Ducks history as well as interact with Teemu Selanne and other Anaheim Ducks alumni.
The festivities begin at 2 p.m. on Saturday, Jan. 21, with the Ducks vs. Wild puck drop at 6:00 p.m. The free event is open to all and fans are invited to stay to watch the Ducks evening contest live at Honda Center. The Ducks mascot Wild Wing, Street Team and Power Players will be on hand with giveaways and games to ensure a fun filled afternoon and evening for all in attendance. Local food trucks, live entertainment, interactive hockey games and exhibits will round out the ultimate Ducks experience. Additional details about the event will be announced on a daily basis and an NHL Centennial Celebration Watch Party event map is attached for your viewing.
In addition, fans are encouraged to bring their used hockey equipment to the centennial event to donate to the Recycle the Game program that helps in providing equipment for under-served community hockey programs. This program is part of both the NHL Green initiative and the Anaheim Ducks sustainability programs which serve to help manage and raise awareness of global environmental challenges. This program looks to get old gear and equipment out of the garage and back on to the ice where it belongs. Look for the hockey net drop-box within Centennial Fan Arena to donate your equipment on Jan. 21. Accepted items include helmets, shoulder pads, elbow pads, hockey pants, shin pads, gloves, skates, sticks, goalie pads and goalie blockers/gloves. The first 200 donors will receive a shop.nhl.com discount card for donating to this great cause.
