The Great One may not have played his final alumni game, after all.
Wayne Gretzky was among the names included on the St. Louis Blues' roster for the Winter Classic alumni game against the Chicago Blackhawks on New Year's Eve, the Blues announced Thursday night.
After playing for the Edmonton Oilers' Heritage Classic alumni squad, Gretzky said the game might have been his last. He played 18 games for St. Louis after being acquired from the Los Angeles Kings in 1996.
Martin Brodeur was also named to the alumni squad Thursday night. The Blues' assistant general manager said in late October that he was considering suiting up for the game.
The legendary goaltender played seven games for St. Louis to conclude his playing career in 2014-15.
Here's the rest of the Blues' alumni game roster:
