Ngl I like 96 a lot more, but he had a ton of success with 28 so lets hope it continues!

I liked Timo in 96 but I don’t mind it being easier to differentiate him from Hughes and Haula since play-by-play people were often misreading the jersey numbers during play lol.
And this is why I decided to wait when he signed the new deal.

Needed him back in 28 for my eyes

Damn I thought 96 was awesome for him. Only devil to wear it. Meanwhile, he’ll be the 28th player to wear 28.
Guess he just wanted his old number back.

I’m glad timo is changing from #96, I always mixed him up with lil’jizzy. #28 is kinda unique number.

Why does anyone regret buying the 96? That shit is awesome. I may order one right now. It’s a deep cut diehard fan piece.

Hate the 28 :/

96 was much cooler and unique but 28 will be much easier to tell it’s not Jack

Reading this thread I’m glad I’m not the only one regularly confusing him and Jack. As much as 96 is cooler than 28, it will be nice to differentiate easier.

Jack and Timo both great players–but how can anyone mix them up for longer than a few seconds of puck movement and skating?! I’d be able to tell who Jack was and wasn’t with numberless jerseys…

[Apparently they’ll also be doing a promotion for fans who bought 96 jerseys already with a 28% discount on a 28 Meier jersey if you’re wearing his old number jersey during the first 2 weeks of the season.](https://www.nhl.com/devils/news/meier-28-has-become-my-lucky-number-feature)
96 was so much cooler on him.

Coward, I would go with 69; take it back.
Did this get cleared with Rafalski?
