Early 90's at Maple Leaf Gardens. An exhibition game . Red Kelly, Carl Brewer, The Big "M", Ivan Irwin, Peter Conacher , Sid Smith,  Bobby and Howie Menard, and  yup and Tom and Larry Dallimore.  Around that era, the Gray Blades had an exhibition game against the NHL Oldtimers in Stouffville.  I don't think we won!!!
