Hockey: Bruins Alumni Vs. Middlesex Sheriff's Office Sunday In Lowell

LOWELL, MA — Boston Bruins' greats will face some of Middlesex County's finest on the ice this weekend, with the proceeds going to charity.

At 2 p.m. Sunday at the Tsongas Center in Lowell, 300 Arcand Dr., the Boston Bruins Alumni will skate in a hockey game against the Middlesex Sheriff's Office Hockey Team. Tickets are available online and cost $20 for adults and $16 for children.

There will be a free skate for MSO staffers and their families after the game.

According to organizers, proceeds from the event will go to The Bridge Club of Greater Lowell, a nonprofit dedicated to providing a safe place to meet for those in recovery. The club welcomes over 30 recovery meetings every week — for organizations like Alcoholics Anonymous, Al-Anon and Gamblers Anonymous — and it features a staff of recovery coaches to assist those navigating their recovery journey.

According to a representative from Boston Bruins Alumni, Reggie Lemelin, Joe Mullen, Ken Linseman, Bob Beers and Steve Leach are among the former players expected to take part in the event.

"Both teams will lace up the skates and hit the ice for charity and we are proud to support their great effort," Middlesex County Sheriff Peter Koutoujian said in a social media message promoting the game. "This is an exciting family-friendly event featuring food and a free skate for MSO staff and their families after the game. We also have free tickets available to MSO employees."
