The 55-year-old Recchi, who will become the 28th member of the team’s Hall of Fame, will also play in the alumni game and be joined by former “Crazy Eights” linemates Eric Lindros and Brent Fedyk. That trio will be joined by the likes of team Hall of Famers John LeClair, Mark Howe, and Joe Watson, as well as beloved former All-Stars like Mike Richards, Scott Hartnell, and Brad Marsh. Watson, 80, will be the first player in team history to play in an alumni game in seven decades.
Tickets for the game are $25 and fans have the option to add a VIP reception ticket. Tickets can be purchased at FlyersCharities.com and all proceeds will benefit the Flyers Alumni Association and Flyers Charities’ efforts to support the Philadelphia community.
