I refuse to contemplate adding him to this roster
In all likelihood there will be a Wings-Leafs alumni game at Comerica Park sometime before the Classic, as this year's tilt between Philadelphia and New York alums sold out Citizens Bank Park. The next step is to determine who will suit up for each team. I'll let Toronto bloggers take care of their team, while I have some suggestions for the Wings roster below.
The roster was created using the current Wings alumni team as a base, then adding players that I thought still had a reasonable chance of being able to skate. I'd love to see Mr. Hockey and Terrible Ted suit up for just one shift, but is that truly reasonable? Probably not, but a guy can hope.
Forwards
Shanahan-Yzerman-Fedorov
Ogrodnick-Larionov-Redmond
Maltby-Draper-McCarty
Kocur-Polonich-Ciccarelli
Burr-Dionne-Brown
Defesnemen
Chelios-Murphy
Rafalski-M.Howe
Coffey-Larson
Chiasson-Schneider
Goalies
Osgood
Vernon
Hasek
My only real concern in creating the roster was adding Hasek. If he plays a solid period he'll be chasing down Kenny Holland after the game to let him know of plans for his triumphant return to the NHL in the 2013-14 season.
Love it? Hate it? I'd love to hear what other people are thinking. Let me know on Twitter (@TOGBlog1) on in the comments section below.
