These old-timers have still got it.
As the Colorado Avalanche and Detroit Red Wings get set for Saturday's Stadium Series game at Coors Field in Denver, an esteemed group of hockey legends from both sides gathered to renew acquaintances and pay homage to a great modern rivalry in the alumni game.
After Valeri Kamensky opened the scoring, a pair of Hall of Fame centers got in on the action, beginning with Steve Yzerman's rebound goal past Patrick Roy.
Soon after, Joe Sakic displayed his still deadly wrist shot, beating Ty Conklin up high.
