Retired goaltender Gilles Meloche is one of 26 former members of the Minnesota Wild and North Stars who suited up for Saturday's Alumni Game against the Chicago Blackhawks at TCF Bank Stadium in Minneapolis, and the 65-year-old took the ice in style.
Wearing the classic North Stars uniform, the 18-year NHL veteran also donned a retro mask, as seen in this photo with former teammate Don Beaupre.
