The ceremony will feature Tavares and his entire family on the ice before the game, commemorating his successful journey in the league.
Update: The Leafs will be honoring Captain John Tavares tonight for reaching 1,000 career points last week in New York. Tavares and his family will be honored with a ceremony pre-game.
Tavares joined the ranks of the NHL's elite, becoming the 98th player in history to hit the 1000-point mark when he assisted on the tying goal against his former team, the New York Islanders, last week at UBS arena.
Tonight, Leafs fans have the opportunity to give their captain the celebration he deserves on home ice, right in front of his family.
