SAN JOSE -A teal carpet will be rolled out Tuesday night to celebrate the San Jose Sharks’ 25th anniversary.

The hockey team’s current players and coaches along with alumni will attend the 8:15 p.m. event at SAP Center, also known by fans as the “Shark Tank,” in downtown San Jose.

The 90-minute program will feature speakers and a multimedia presentation highlighting the team’s history and heritage, team officials said.

The program will also cover the team’s impact on San Jose, its “iconic” use of teal and the growth of hockey in the Bay Area, team officials said.

NHL Commissioner Gary Bettman, Sharks majority owner Hasso Plattner and other team executives are scheduled to attend, according to team officials.

Other expected attendees include San Jose Mayor Sam Liccardo and former mayors Tom McEnery, Susan Hammer, Ron Gonzales and Chuck Reed, team officials said.

Tickets for the event start at $25 and can be purchased online through Ticketmaster.

Sales will benefit The Sharks Foundation, a nonprofit that works with the team to help underserved youth and families.
