In addition, video messages from several of Schenn's teammates will also be played throughout the night.

“You don’t think about 1,000 games, you look back on it,” Schenn said. “You embrace the grind, embrace the ups and downs of how good this league is and how many good players there are. It’s a special league to be part of.

"I’ve always said St. Louis has been the best thing for me," he added. "I got a great opportunity, I love it here, have spent many good years here. To hit a milestone here in St. Louis, it means a lot to me."

Schenn, 33, is in his eighth season with the Blues and 16th season overall. The Saskatoon, Saskatchewan native has recorded 274 goals and 401 assists (675 points) in the regular season. He was named the 24th captain in Blues history in 2023 and helped the team capture its first Stanley Cup championship in 2019.
