On Jan. 1, the NHL introduced the first 33 members of the 100 Greatest NHL Players presented by Molson Canadian. The remaining 67 will be revealed at NHL100 presented by GEICO on Jan. 27 in Los Angeles as part of 2017 NHL Honda All-Star Weekend.

As part of the Centennial Celebration, renowned Canadian artist Tony Harris, based in Ottawa, will paint original portraits of each of the 100 players, who were chosen by a Blue Ribbon Panel.

Harris' work will capture the character and spirit of each player in a one-of-a-kind 11-by-14 canvas. The oil-based paintings then will be digitized and posted online for fans around the world to experience and share.
