A Classic photobomb occurred Saturday, courtesy of Lanny McDonald.

The Hall of Fame forward known for his glorious moustache is representing the Toronto Maple Leafs in the 2017 Rogers NHL Centennial Classic Alumni Game, and stole the show before the puck dropped, sliding across the ice in front of the Detroit Red Wings' team picture.

"Oh yeah, sliding across," McDonald said. "You gotta have a little bit of fun with it. Life is too short not to laugh from time to time."
The Red Wings alumni got a kick out of McDonald's stunt, even though the longtime rival of Detroit crashed their highly planned group photo.
