The NHL’s Centennial Classic outdoor festivities, to be hosted at Toronto’s BMO Field at the end of this year, will feature the Toronto Maple Leafs and Detroit Red Wings. The regular season NHL game will take place on Jan. 1, and the alumni game is set to go on Dec. 31 at 12:30 pm ET.
And now we have the rosters for that game.
On Hockey Central at Noon Tuesday, Red Wings alumni Kris Draper and Maple Leafs alumni Darcy Tucker joined the show to announce the rosters for the Dec. 31 game. Both players will be a part of the event. Here are the full rosters, first for the Maple Leafs (note who the president of the Leafs is playing for in this game):
And the Red Wings…
This is the second time the teams have met in an outdoor game, with the first being in 2014 at Michigan Stadium in Ann Arbor.
