    – 2004: Darren Langdon
    – 2007: Sergei Samsonov
    – 2011: Jeff Halpern
    – 2012: Petteri Nokelainen
    – 2014: George Parros
    – 2015: PA Parenteau

    The full list [here](https://www.hockey-reference.com/teams/MTL/numbers.html).

    Fun fact: the first to wear #15: The Rocket.

    When I was collecting hockey cards as a kid, #15 is Bobby Rousseau’s number. Then it was Claude Larose. In fact, they traded Bobby Rousseau for Claude Larose, so #15 went from one guy to his trade replacement. I wonder if that was a first?
