NEW YORK – USA Hockey Executive Director Dave Ogrean will be the guest on tomorrow's edition of NHL Hour With Commissioner Gary Bettman on SIRIUS XM Radio.

Ogrean will discuss the second annual Hockey Weekend Across America, which begins Friday, Feb. 13 and runs through Sunday, Feb. 15. Hockey Weekend Across America celebrates hockey and those involved in the game at all levels and also seeks to expose the game to additional audiences to attract more players, coaches, officials, volunteers and fans to the sport.

The Games represent the 30th anniversary of the U.S. 'Miracle On Ice' at Lake Placid and the 50th anniversary of the U.S. capturing the Olympic gold at Squaw Valley.
