The MacInness family - Doug, Shannon, son Ben and daughter Abby - show off their excitement outside the stadium prior to the start of the alumni game Saturday.

Lee Beaucage sported an old helmet and his Edmonton Oilers jersey to pay homage to Wayne Gretzky at the 2016 Heritage Classic alumni game Saturday.

He said he wasn't scared to be wearing blue and orange to Investors Group Field. But Sunday's match up would be a different story.

"This day's all about fun for the fans," he said outside the stadium at the spectator plaza before the puck dropped.
