Winter Classic: Alumni Team Guide

A closer look at the Canadiens Alumni taking to the ice ahead of the Winter Classic.

As part of the Winter Classic the Montreal Canadiens and the Boston Bruins alumni teams will renew old rivalries and tangle in an Alumni exhibition game. Nothing will be on the line, but it will be a great opportunity to relive some memories by seeing some older players don the blue-blanc-rouge jersey again.

It was Jacques Demers who announced the Alumni team in late November, adding that he would also be coaching the team. The coaching staff will also include three Hall-of-Famers in Guy Lafleur, Yvan Cournoyer, and Serge Savard, as well as Réjean Houle, the long-standing President of the Montreal Canadiens Alumni Association.
