Hockey lovers will be in all their glory as two massive hockey events unite forces. 

The Kimmett Cup and Hometown Hockey will be hosted together in the same weekend.

Reid Kimmett, Kimmett Cup, Co Organizer says they were pretty honoured to be included in Hometown Hockey weekend.

"Overall we were humbled to be asked to be involved in that, and that they want to recognize Lindsay's legacy and what we do with the Children's Wish and various organizations, It's an honour for us to be a part of that."

While details are still being finalized, the Kimmett Cup should run pretty much status quo.

"There is still a lot to be discussed but overall the plan is for Kimmett Cup to happen as it always does. Then we are looking at doing some additional events on Sunday, that may be a celebrity game featuring some of our Wish Families and NHL alumni or may be doing a separate kids tournament that day."

Kimmett says they are looking forward to the opportunity.

"Having the opportunity to tell that story and create more awareness for the organizations that we work with , is just a great opportunity for us."

Hometown Hockey and the Kimmett Cup will both be held the weekend of February 12, 2017.
