Medal of Honor recipient and Austin native Dakota Meyer will drop the ceremonial puck prior to the start of Sunday’s game against Seattle. Meyer, who is veteran of the war in Afghanistan and recently made the decision to re-enlist, was awarded the Medal of Honor for his heroic actions during the Battle of Ganjgal on September 8, 2009, in Kunar Province. He is the second-youngest living Medal of Honor recipient, the third living recipient recognized for service in the Iraq and Afghanistan wars, and the first living U.S. Marine in 28 years to receive this honor.

The jersey auction will open Nov. 9 at 10 a.m. and close Nov. 14 at 5 p.m. The foundation will also have military-themed autographed mystery pucks available for purchase at the fan center outside section 113 at American Airlines Center.
