Retire #44 topic

Watching them both play, I'd take MacInnis every time...

Well deserved and long overdue. i nearly threw up watching Jason Arnott skate around in a 44 Blues jersey. That was a disgrace.
Pronger is a close 2nd to Hull when it comes to most dominant skater to play for the Blues. Nobody tilted the ice like Pronger did; he could just take over a game with his presence and his mastery of the stretch pass made him a cheat-code for the 2nd half of his career. Dude carried every team on his back in the playoffs; so glad he was able to get his Cup in Anaheim.

Can we all appreciate that we’re raising a banner while Nashville is in the house haha

Solid post. I’m good with it so as non-heralded players like Sydor and Arnott can’t wear 44 anymore. I did like Arnott as a player though.

Could he play that nite and then retire the jersey after the game? We might need him.

Going to this game. Hopefully will get one of the banners.

Petro brings home a Cup, he gets his number in the rafters.

While wearing the C no less. Yeah, that happens no matter what.

Prongs number needs to be raised right next to Chopper's.

Hockey is my entire life. Chris pronger was my inspiration from 4 years old to start playing and still work in it at as my full time job to this day. This is so f***ing meaningful to me I can’t even describe it……
