Well, you'd have to figure that was going to happen considering the two teams involved.
Some choice quotes from the article.
Gordie Howe, Ted Lindsay, Chris Chelios and Larry Murphy are expected to appear for the Red Wings at the alumni games, along with Mickey Redmond, John Ogrodnick, Luc Robitaille, Dino Ciccarelli, Mark Howe, Chris Osgood, Mike Vernon and Alex Delvecchio.
Red Wings general manager Ken Holland also said four members of Detroit's "Grind Line" -- Kris Draper, Kirk Maltby, Darren McCarty and Joe Kocur -- are expected.Some of the comments are even better:Clark, Darryl Sittler and Doug Gilmour are expected to represent the Maple Leafs, along with Rick Vaive, Darcy Tucker, Felix Potvin, Mike Palmateer, Kevin Maguire, Dave Andreychuk, Curtis Joseph, Johnny Bower, Ron Ellis and Jim McKenny.
More players will need to be added, obviously, and Holland said he'd certainly reach out to former Detroit stars like Steve Yzerman, Sergei Fedorov and Nicklas Lidstrom.
"If Detroit fields Lidstrom, Yzerman, Fedorov, Shanahan, Chelios, Maltby, Draper, McCarty, Robitaille, and Osgood with some fillers they could beat the actual 2013 Maple Leafs "
"Halleluja a stanley cup winning leaf team finally takes the ice. That is if there are any players left still alive!"
