The "Guns & Hoses" hockey game will take place at 1 p.m. Sunday, right before the Oilers game, at the BOK Center in Tulsa.

Prosecutors said three men attacked Officer Peery in February, 2011, when he tried to break up a fight at Dan O'Brien's Pub in Oklahoma City. Peery suffered a severe spinal cord injury, and was left paralyzed from the neck down.

Tickets to the benefit game are $12 and will cover admission to both games. It can be purchased at the BOK Center before the game.

Authorities said $5 from every ticket sold will go to the Chad Peery Foundation.
