what?? Absolutely not. The retired jersey numbers stay retired. Allowing Laf to wear #11 would make a mockery of the highest honor a player can receive, short of the HOF.

I suggest that Kakko struggled this season because he gave up 45 for the very boring 24. Maybe give Laf 45? Or 88, has a Ranger ever wore that number?
 
or pull an ivan zamorano and go with 9+2 on his back to get 11.

Oh my God! An Ivan Zamorano reference on HFNYR!!!
 
Messier would not be into getting an NHL team to unretire a number? Somebody should tell Canucks fans.
Wayne Maki's number was retired? Where is the banner? The Canucks didn't communicate that they had an unofficial number retired when he took the number, either.
