Ex-Detroit Red Wings champ Brett Hull up for laughs to help raise money for opioid fight

Brett Hull was known for his shot and his boisterous personality, and his tenure with the Detroit Red Wings made him a natural to be in the spotlight for the third annual Jamie Daniels Foundation roast.

The reason behind the celebrity roast, which will be telecast at 8 p.m. Monday on Bally Sports Detroit, is the tragedy of substance use disorder, a disease that continues to devastate society. The roast raises money for the cause, with a focus on prevention and recovery.

Hull follows Scotty Bowman and Mickey Redmond in the spotlight.

“He’s a natural,” Ken Daniels said.
