Police remind us the Alumni Hockey game between the Toronto Maple Leafs and the Detroit Red Wings will be held on Saturday, December 31, 2016 and the Centennial Classic game is being played on Sunday, January 1, 2017. All of this is at BMO Field, which is sort of a secret because the event is sponsored by Scotiabank (BNS). In case you didn’t know, or forgot, here’s what it’s all about:  “The Toronto Maple Leafs and Detroit Red Wings will face-off in an outdoor regular-season game at BMO Field in Toronto on Sunday, Jan. 1, 2017, in the first-ever NHL Centennial Classic..In 2017, the NHL will conduct a year-long Centennial celebration that will feature a variety of ceremonies, recognitions, observances and special events that will highlight 100 years of NHL hockey and also will recognize a number of milestone anniversaries for member Clubs, including the Maple Leafs.” Maple Leafs vs Red Wings
