Today is New Year's eve, and it is also the eve of the Winter Classic, between the Boston Bruins and Montreal Canadiens. This afternoon, the alumni squads for these two teams will face off in a friendlier match-up than we're likely to see tomorrow.
Both Squads feature some seriously talented former players, and while they're not going to be playing with the intensity of two teams jockeying for position in the NHL standings, it should be a great blast from the past, and an entertaining game to watch.
If you're a fan of old time hockey, it will be especially fun to watch.
