The Captains Night event has annually kicked off the high school season since 2007. The 2016-17 high school season opens in 10 days, with practice beginning Nov. 7. Games begin Nov. 26.
The event includes not only the on-ice ceremony but an opportunity for the captains to ask questions about rules and other issues, according to an article by the NJ Devils staff in 2014.
