Nicklas Lidstrom, Doug Gilmour to wear famed numbers

One more time, there will be a No. 5 for the Detroit Red Wings and a No. 93 for the Toronto Maple Leafs playing in a game.
Nicklas Lidstrom and Doug Gilmour each will wear the same number he made famous during an NHL career that earned him his place in the Hockey Hall of Fame when the Red Wings and Maple Leafs alums play at the 2017 Rogers NHL Centennial Classic Alumni Game at Exhibition Stadium in Toronto on Dec. 31 (12 p.m. ET; NHLN).

The alumni game is the prelude to the 2017 Scotiabank NHL Centennial Classic, also at Exhibition Stadium, on Jan. 1 (3 p.m. ET; NBC, SN, TVA Sports, NHL.TV).
Lidstrom (inducted in 2015) and Gilmour (2011) are two of the 12 members of the Hockey Hall of Fame who will play in the game, which will will consist of three 20-minute periods with running time.
