Darcy Tucker ribs Daniel Alfredsson about retirement
Daniel Alfredsson is reportedly planning to announce his retirement in a ceremony next week in Ottawa, and an old foe wants an invite.

Tucker and Alfredsson had many battles over the years as two of the central figures in the Battle of Ontario between the Toronto Maple Leafs and the Ottawa Senators.
Their most controversial moment came in the 2002 playoffs, when Alfredsson hit Tucker from behind and avoided discipline.
Tucker is clearly having some fun with his old rival. but we'd love to see him there at Canadian Tire Centre next Thursday. Alfredsson hasn't tweeted since September, but if there was ever a time to do it, that time is now.
Over to you, Daniel.
