#301 - Retired Numbers Team Sticker
#301 - Retired Numbers Team Sticker
OK, so it's not the ONLY reason, but a big one. I've been wanting to get this sticker for the collection ever since I saw one of the other Linden collectors land one.
Yet another reason why I like the release. Such a simple concept...but like some of the best things in life - simple is best.
Now here's the fun part. Can you link the other two numbers that have been retired. Here's a hint (one of them is a bit of a trick). Good luck.
Linden is 16 and Stan Smyl is 12 but I don't know 7. Is it Cliff Ronning? No idea.
ReplyDelete12 - Stan The Steamer Smyl
ReplyDelete16 - Some guy ;)
7 - the seventh man, in honour of the fans
99- in a very stupid move by the league
also not used, 11 in honour of Wayne Maki, except some idiot insisted on dishonouring his memory for a couple of seasons...
and 28, in honour of Bourdan...
Very nice. The number 7 is indeed the 7th man.
ReplyDeleteI should have guessed it was something hokey like that. Leave it to Canada.
ReplyDeleteJust kidding.
So does that mean no one can wear #7 then since it isn't really a player's number?
I don't think so. The last player to wear the number was Brendan Morrison.
ReplyDeleteummm...that's 7 thing is pretty lame.
