One of the biggest names in Canadian hockey is visiting Thompson.

Ron Mclean and The Rogers Hometown Hockey crew are finally visiting this weekend.

Ron McLean says residents can expect a whole combination of giveaways, and reminds people that everything is free. He says it's going to be a great thing for a family to do.

On Sunday the Flames take on the Senators. Leading up to the game, Ron McLean will be hosting his pre-game show live, from the Sportsnet Mobile Broadcast Studio at the TRCC.

A full list of events happening this weekend can be found on social media or at thompson.ca.
