Clarke, Barber say alumni game will be their last

Saturday's alumni game against the Pittsburgh Penguins will be a farewell of sorts for two of the greatest Flyers in franchise history, Hockey Hall of Famers Bob Clarke and Bill Barber.

After skating at the Flyers' practice facility Wednesday as a tune-up for the game at the sold-out Wells Fargo Center, each said this would be his final alumni game.

Their high-scoring linemate, Reggie Leach, will also play in the game, giving fans one last look at the famed LCB Line.

Clarke, 67, said he will be nostalgic as he plays one final time.

"But the time comes when the younger people have to play in the alumni games, and I'm spending most of the winters in Florida," Clarke said.
