In completely uncontroversial news (fingers crossed, anyway), Schlegel Sports is hosting the fourth annual Pros vs. Prospects Charity Classic March 21 at the Dr. Pepper Stars Center in Frisco. The game puts hockey pros against—you guessed it—prospects from the Texas Tornado hockey club. This year’s celebrity roster of players and coaches will include Brett Hull, Luc Robitaille, Benoit Hogue, and Neal Broten. Proceeds go to benefit the Frisco Education Foundation and the Boys & Girls Club of Collin County. Tickets are now on sale through the Texas Tornado ticket office or online at www.tornadohockey.com.
To pull this charity game off, they’re going to need at least a dozen guys doing a combination of cons. Off the top of my head, I’d say you’re looking at a Boeski, a Jim Brown, a Miss Daisy, two Jethros and a Leon Spinks, not to mention the biggest Ella Fitzgerald ever!
Is IMDB your friend today, Eric?
This reminds me of that South Park episode where the South Park Pee Wee hockey team goes up against the NHL team, and gets slaughtered. HIGH-larious!
Last I checked Hullsie, Broten and the others were not known for their fighting prowess.
Nincompoop.
BTW, Neal Broten, winner of an Olympic gold medal (1980), NCAA championship, Hobey Baker Award and Stanley Cup is truly the greatest (North) Star of all time. Not underachieving Modano.
