When I was told that I was getting something named after me back home I was very excited, it is a true honor and I can't wait to attend the ceremony. While it's a little weird that it won't be anything hockey related it, it is still really cool to have something named after me that I am passionate about. The building that's being named after me is a music hall, somewhere people can not only play music in front of crowds but also take lessons and expand their abilities. I love music and playing the guitar is one of my off-ice hobbies so being able to advance the love and appreciation for music in my hometown is such an honor for me. I've been told there are going to have everything from concerts to music classes for all ages there. It's things like this that make me so grateful to be a pro hockey player.
