Prospect Info: 2018 NHL Draft / Pick #22 - K'Andre Miller (D)

[JimmyG89]

We need to bring back more single digits.

4-5-6-8 (soon)

If I had to guess, someone else might get to wear #5, but at some point that number will be retired. I don't agree with the notion, but I can see it being done.

Girardi? Lol. No.

Maybe Ulf Samuelsson, even though he once tried to assassinate Janet Gretzky.

Reminds me of the line by PBP guy Tim Kitzrow from NHL Hitz pro. It was something to the effect of "These jersey numbers are getting out of hand. Back in my day, nobody wore double digits. We had some guys wearing # 6 and 3/4ths, 4 and 1/2, but nothing higher than 9."

Interesting. I doubt it though. Two more full-on strong seasons and staying with NYR, yes. But the league changed and it didn’t quite happen. That said, I’d prefer he stayed over Staal. (Not hating on Staal).

They're going to have a Barry Beck night?

Dale Purinton?

Admittedly, the number thing took some getting used to, but I’m there now.

The first time I can really remember seeing it was as a trend was in the mid to late 90s. You started seeing numbers pop up like 87, 89, 91, 93, 94, 96, 97.

I feel like this is a continuation of that trend.

I feel like since Crosby a lot of people are just picking their birth year. I believe Mika and McDavid both have their birth year. But if that continues we'll be seeing a lot more small numbers.

Half the oilers are wearing 90s

At one point it was draft years, then it started shifting to birth years.

I will admit, there is a part of me that misses the days when your starting forwards were as simple as 9, 11, 33.

I feel like that started with Smyth and his draft year and then sort of carried over to other players over the years on that team.

 

[frisland]

Isnt Chytil wearing 72 because its his dads birthyear, which means i'm old enough to have a baby nhler....i'll stick to dachshunds...

 

[Kovalev27]

Are we still NOT talking about miller?

I'm about equidistant to his dad's birth year as to his.

Lol this place and some people here get off the rails real bad.

And look at their record!!!

 

[Algernop Kreider]

Will Kravtsov wear 74 in the NHL? He wears 19 with the national team, right?

 

[EdJovanovski]

I thought he wears 14 with the national team
And 19 is retired by the Rangers so it won't be that. He has 93 in his twitter name for some reason, but Zibby wears that
I'd assume he'll wear 74, I wish we knew already so I could buy a jersey.

14. I asked him and he said he will wear whichever number the Rangers give him. He has no preference

This epidemic of Rangers rookies just taking whatever garbage numbers the team gives them needs to be addressed.

I hope he goes with 14. It's a great number that's currently not in use. But at the same time I'd be happy with 74 because we need someone else taking that number after Bouchard

74 is a perfect number for him imo. By the way, LUTCH USA never freaking works for me, and I've been wanting to order a traktor jersey for so long and the site is just garbage.
