Eleven Posted August 26, 2017 Report Posted August 26, 2017 55 Hecht is all I have for this decade. Quote
Randall Flagg Posted August 26, 2017 Report Posted August 26, 2017 How could you possibly forget Will Carrier? Only other guy to wear it. He never impressed me. Hey, I had to look it up. I will forever remember Will Carrier as the only Buffalo Sabre in history to be a positive possession player while sharing the same ice sheet as Rasmus Ristolainen Quote

Eleven Posted August 27, 2017 Report Posted August 27, 2017 61: Maxim Afinogenov 65: Mark Napier The reason Napier wore 65 is interesting. He was active in charitable work related to cystic fibrosis. Young children with CF can't pronounce it easily, so they are taught that they have "65 roses." Quote

dudacek Posted August 28, 2017 Report Posted August 28, 2017 (edited) So the only thing I can conclude from this report is that Rip has been fired (relevant stuff at the bottom, after the Bogosian stuff): http://www.wgr550.com/articles/news/bogosian-looking-forward-season Edited August 28, 2017 by dudacek Quote

DarthEbriate Posted August 29, 2017 Report Posted August 29, 2017 Or someone new laid down the law about it. I'm quite happy about the number changes. They're playing at the height of their profession; let them choose their own number. I played better when I wore my favorite number, therefore it must apply to the big leagues. Quote

LGR4GM Posted August 29, 2017 Report Posted August 29, 2017 Connolly, Leino, Cy Hgsn. One good but sadly injured. One absolute overpaid garbage. One, disappointment. Quote
