I stand corrected. I didn’t think the league would allow a mid-season number change, but I was clearly wrong.
Great to see Kane will wear his traditional number!

His favorite player is Ilya Kovalchuk. Probably why he chose #17

Someone mentioned that he should switch to 11 to commemorate all the posts he’s hit.
Well, 17 kinda also looks like the outline of the goal posts, so kudos for calling it

Kinda wish kane wouldn’t just chosen a different number. Would’ve been cool for him to have his own detroit number

He’s gonna be so mad when Steve gets Jari Kurri to come out of retirement.

Good to see Kanes still a double eight ball kinda guy. Wonder if he’s got Hudler on speed dial.

Dougie Brown, unsung hero of our 90’s cup runs.

Sprong has worn a different number for every team he’s played for in the league. Penguins – #41 Ducks – #11 Capitals – #10 Kraken – #91 Redwings – #88 & #17

There was a kid on my kids youth hockey team who wore 88 and his dad would always be yelling “Come on, eights!” At first I was confused because it sounds exactly like “Come on, AIDS!”
Just saying.

Love it. Brett hull knee drops activated.
Sprong seemed like such a #69 kind of guy
The Legwand influence.
