Frenchie Posted May 17, 2007 Share Posted May 17, 2007 Has anyone seen that before:Both Adam Dennis and Ty Conklin (clown) have been wearing #35 this season.-given Adam Dennis never PLAYED a game for the sabres and is no longer on their ACTIVE Roster, but he's on NHL official game sheets as back-up goalie (4 of 5 games...) when Miller was out, and he is still with the team.My dilemma is that I want to get my Sabres shirt customized with Dennis' name on it, but if he comes back next year (or the year after...) with a differnt number, I'll be th eone looking like a "clown"What should I do??? @Frenchie_TO Owner of the Rochester Americans of the MLH Owner of the Toronto Frenchies of the GCFHL6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
So_Fla Posted May 17, 2007 Share Posted May 17, 2007 Has anyone seen that before:Yes, Claude Larose and Robbie Ftorek both wore #8 for the Cincinnati Stingers of the WHA in the 1977-1978 season.And they were on the ice at the same time while wearing #8 sometimes.I thought this thread meant that two players were wearing the same number simultaneously, not two players wearing the same number in a season after one has departed. That happens alot. Two at the same time is rare, I betcha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CJR Posted May 17, 2007 Share Posted May 17, 2007 Brad Norton and Kyle Calder both wore #17 for the Red Wings this season. Norton started the season with it, then got sent down to GR. Detroit traded for Calder and he took it. FantasyHockeySim.com || DetroitHockey.Net || DetroitHockey.Net FHL || cjr.dev Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Draft Dodger Posted May 17, 2007 Share Posted May 17, 2007 Brad Norton and Kyle Calder both wore #17 for the Red Wings this season. Norton started the season with it, then got sent down to GR. Detroit traded for Calder and he took it.John-Michael Liles started the season wearing his #26 before switching for Paul Stastny 10 games in.fwiw, Conklin is a free agent this summer, so perhaps Dennis won't need to change his number next year.

Jarred Revolver Posted May 17, 2007 Share Posted May 17, 2007 Luc Bourdon wore #4 to start the season for the Canucks, was sent down to the minors, and then Brent Sopel wore #4 when aquired at the trade deadline. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve03Merc Posted May 17, 2007 Share Posted May 17, 2007 I remember that two starters on Ohio State shared numbers a few years ago. I think it was like Santonio Holmes and Ashton Youboty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DGivens87 Posted May 17, 2007 Share Posted May 17, 2007 In 2004, Earl Snyder and Adam Hyzdu both wore number 37, obviously at different points, for the Red Sox. Snyder was called up sometime in mid-August, went 1 for 4, then immediately sent back down to Pawtucket. A few weeks later, Hyzdu was a September call-up, and sported 37 as well. They both got rings though. A large cheese pizza, just for me.New England's source for soccer newsAnd hey, I made it to ESPN! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chazberg Posted May 17, 2007 Share Posted May 17, 2007 All I wanna know is, why do you wanna get Dennis on your jersey? Despite my hatred for Buffalo, I can still admit their roster is chalk-full of jersey-worthy players. Why not go with a Pominville, or Drury, or even Stafford or Hecht? charles-noerenberg.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HedleyLamarr Posted May 17, 2007 Share Posted May 17, 2007 Earlier this season, Glen Metropolit wore #9 for the Thrashers, got traded in the Tkachuk deal, and Pascal Dupuis sported the #9 when he got traded here from the Rangers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColeJ Posted May 18, 2007 Share Posted May 18, 2007 sort of the opposite:when the stars traded shane churla and doug zmolek to the kings for darryl sydor, sydor wanted to wear 5.but that was zmolek's number. so sydor decided not to take his number immediately, out of respect. so he wore 6 for his first partial season in dallas, before going to 5.he wore 25 in los angeles.

Frenchie Posted May 18, 2007 Author Share Posted May 18, 2007 All I wanna know is, why do you wanna get Dennis on your jersey? Despite my hatred for Buffalo, I can still admit their roster is chalk-full of jersey-worthy players. Why not go with a Pominville, or Drury, or even Stafford or Hecht?2 reasons:A) I like being different... Nothing worst that seing 5 Sundins having a beer together in a bar...2) Been following his career since he got drafted in the OHL at the time my wife worked with his mom...As for guys getting traded I get it, but I still think guys being sent down shouldn't lose their number... when you call him up, he has to pick another number in the same season??? @Frenchie_TO Owner of the Rochester Americans of the MLH Owner of the Toronto Frenchies of the GCFHL6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Approximately 20-25% of your scholarship players are redshirted.And as long as football is the school's main source of money-making in the athletic department, they get to legally do whatever they please.....

TheStoicPaisano Posted May 18, 2007 Share Posted May 18, 2007 I remember that two starters on Ohio State shared numbers a few years ago. I think it was like Santonio Holmes and Ashton Youboty.It was Holmes and Will Allen.Ohio State had about 10 numbers which were shared by two scholarship guys. A few of them were veteran/freshman who ended up redshirting, but Doug Datish and Vern Gholston both started and wore 50. When you have retired numbers and everybody clamoring to wear a low number, you end up with 28 guys wearing 1-20 and ten wearing 51-70. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
