ajs510 122 Posted October 25, 2006 Share Posted October 25, 2006 Biron is a backup that nobody wants.Davidson gave up 3.52 GAA for his career, before deciding that being president of the worst team in hockey would be a good career move. Oh, and Buffalo wants Biron, hence their willingness to pay him $2 million plus to ride the pine. Link to post Share on other sites
Zach6668 513 Posted October 25, 2006 Share Posted October 25, 2006 If we're still going to do the debate thing over who should be known as the best player to wear a certain number, then here's my list of shoe-ins.1234 - Bobby Orr56 - Phil Housley7 - Phil Esposito8 - Can Neely9 - Gordie Howe / Maurice Richard10 - Ron Francis / Guy Lafleur11 - Mark Messier12 - 13 - Mats Sundin141516 - Marcel Dionne (Brett Hull is a close 2nd)17 - 1819 - Steve Yzerman20 - Luc Robitaille21 - Borje Salming / Stan Mikita22 - Mike Bossy23242526 - Peter Stasny27 - Darryl Sittler / Frank Mahovlich2829 - Ken Dryden30313233 - Patrick Roy3435363738394041...66 - Mario Lemieux6768 - Jaromir Jagr697071...77 - Ray Bourque / Paul Coffey...81 - Miroslav Satan82 - Martin Straka83 - Ales Hemsky8485 - Petr Klima8687 - Sidney Crosby88 - Eric Lindros89 - Alexander Mogilny90 - Joe Juneau91 - Sergei Federov9293 - Doug Gilmour94 - Brendan Shanahan9596 - Pavel Bure97 - Jeremy Roenick9899 - Wayne Gretzky------------Obv, this list is a work in progress, mostly off the top of my head, and with some being obv, as the only notables to wear the numbers. Feel free to disagree, add, edit, etc. Let the debates begin.I also know that I'm missing a ton of the classics from the old Leafs and Canadians cup days, but I don't know their numbers.

fryer98 30 Posted October 25, 2006 Share Posted October 25, 2006 i still don't understand mention of derlago at 19 when you have sakic, thornton, and of course stevie y as far better candidates.Because at the time, we were just naming whoever for numbers in order.

fryer98 30 Posted October 25, 2006 Share Posted October 25, 2006 How do we decide players that wore more that 1 number? Bourque/Coffey with 7 and 77 (and I guess 74), etc? What abour Borje Salming for #21?Wasn't Stan Mikita #21? Link to post Share on other sites

Bourque/Coffey with 7 and 77 (and I guess 74), etc?I would go with whatever they wore the majority of their career, Coffey was 77 for the most part, I think.I'm going to continually edit my first post with the new ones you guys post, and if there are conflicts, I'm going to list them all on there and we can vote or debate or whatever, lol.
