Future Retired Number Banner Concepts (NHL Added)

I just talked to a buddy whonworked for the Preds office. I mentioned the probable division banner, for this season. He said that the Conference Champs banner was designed as the template for all future banners, including retired numbers.

 

On a side note, I don't know that we'll retire Weber's number. The general consensus, among the fans, is that Rinne is the only number we have that should be retired. I wouldn't be shocked if we did, but let's be honest, the Preds haven't really accomplished much, that can be brought into Weber's returement argument.

Well, according to h-r, #9 hasn't been worn in Raleigh while the other Hartford numbers have gone back into circulation (or re-retired, as for Glen Wesley). Huh, sure do wonder why the guy from Michigan who who was obsessed with the Red Wings would make sure only Howe's number stayed retired.

♫ oh yeah, board goes on, long after the thrill of postin' is gone ♫

this is a great concept.

 

just my two cents on the teams i root for:

 

while it looked like a sure thing last january, now it'll be a cold day in hell before the islanders ever retire john tavares' number.

 

the mets have a VERY high litmus test for player retired numbers (usually only reserved for franchise-defining guys who also are in the hall of fame: seaver and piazza). they'll break the HOF rule for david wright, but reyes doesn't stand a chance.

 

as for the nets, don't think either carter or lopez fit the bill.
