Former Blizzard player Jordin Tootoo is returning to The Tri Community for an autograph and book signing this Saturday at Twin Motors.

Jordin played a full season for the Blizzard from 1998-1999, leaving a lasting impact both on and off the ice. He then played for the Brandon Wheat Kings in the Western Hockey League (WHL) from 1999 to 2003. He was then drafted by the Nashville Predators in the NHL, where he played 723 games across a 13-season career.

Jordin was the first player of Inuit descent to play in the NHL. He has authored two books and has become an advocate for mental health and Indigenous youth.

Fans are encouraged to bring their copy of one of his books, their favourite jersey, puck, or memorabilia to be autographed by Jordin.
