A three-time NHL all-star in 2016, 2017 and 2019, Dubnyk cracked the NHL’s second all-star team in 2015. He also won the 2015 Bill Masterton Trophy, which is awarded to the player who best exemplifies the qualities of perseverance, sportsmanship and dedication to hockey.

Dubnyk won a gold medal at the 2006 World Juniors with Team Canada. He also played at the World Championships in 2010, 2011 and 2012 and won a gold with Canada at the 2012 Spengler Cup.

The Blazers say there will be a special pregame presentation ahead of the 6:00 p.m. puck drop on Legends Night. The Blazers will also wear limited-edition Devan Dubnyk warmup jerseys which will be auctioned off to support KidSport Kamloops.

In addition to special giveaways throughout the game, the Blazers say the first 1,500 fans though the door will be given a commemorative Devan Dubnyk photo. Dubnyk will also be signing autographs beside the newly created Legends Wall during the first intermission.

“Legends Night is an incredible opportunity for Blazers fans to celebrate one of the franchise’s most accomplished goaltenders and recognize the lasting impact of Blazers alumni on the hockey world,” a statement from the Blazers said.
