Maple Leafs alum and fan-favourite Curtis Joseph took to the ice for a charity event earlier this week where the Maple Leafs' social team took a playful shot at him.
On Wednesday of this past week, a number of current and former NHLers joined forces in Brampton, Ontario for
Hockey night in Brampton, a charity event to raise funds for a new hospital.
Joining Curtis Joseph at the event were current Leafs
Auston Matthews and
Chris Tanev, as well as former NHLers Ryan Getzlaf, Jeremy Roenick and Gary Roberts, among others.
Although he was one of the best goaltenders of his era, Joseph surprised everyone when he took to the ice in regular skaters gear, lining up on the blueline next to
Erik Gudbranson.
Maple Leafs Take Friendly Shot at Curtis Joseph
The Maple Leafs' social team was quick to capture the moment ahead of the opening face-off with Joseph and Gudbranson having a brief discussion.
Posting to social media platform "X", the Leafs' social media team captioned the video with a playful chirp at the former Leafs' netminder.
The now 58-year-old, who resides in Arizona, last played in the NHL in the 2008-09 season, 14 years ago, almost the same amount of time video game players seems have been asking for Grand Theft Auto 6 to be released, which has been delayed again, this time to 2026.
The fan-favourite failed to capture a Stanley Cup during his NHL career, but was part of Team Canada's 2002 Gold Medal winning team in Salt Lake City that snapped a 50-year drought for the country in men's hockey.
Known for his unorthodox style and unique wolf design on his helmet, Cujo has continued to endear himself to fans in hockey, often making appearances at Leafs' home games and other charity events.
