The Esposito brothers finally skated on the same side in Chicago for "One Last Shift," and the younger sibling even dusted off his old goalie mask.

Phil Esposito
, sixth on the NHL goals list, and
Tony Esposito
, who is 10th in wins among goalies, never skated together with the Chicago Blackhawks. Phil played in Chicago from 1963-67, and Tony played for the Blackhawks from 1969-84.
The brothers were honored by the Blackhawks on Wednesday before a game against the St. Louis Blues.
Tony Esposito eventually took his place next to Blackhawks goalie Cam Ward and modeled the old-style mask he used to wear, to the delight of players and fans.
