The Garys. Promoters. Ten years along, Gary Cormier and Gary Topp (in photo at right) - a/k/a The Garys - are still flinty pioneers in the high-mortality field of concert promotion.

Still the main man. Paolo Rossi's goal production has dropped but he's still the centre of most eyes wherever Juventus appears. He'll have a bigger gallery tonight against the Blizzard

Still active. Red Kelly hasn't put on too many pounds since his playing days with the Maple Leafs. He still likes to take part in scrimmages, defence or centre
