With Burke's departure, will players finally be able to pick their own #'s?

[LV*]

I hope the numbers change, but Gardsy better keep #51, it looks dirty. Kadri should try to get #91 or #19, 43 is the ugliest number any player on the Leafs has..

Is it bad that I associate #8 with Aki Berg?

I accidentally hit "report post". Almost went through with it, that name rouses awful memories.

Komisarek looks about as useless as Berg on many occasions. We should take #8 right off the table..

Better Berg than Komisarek.

Komisarek is Aki reincarnate.

Komisarek is Aki reincarnate.

More like Cory Cross...


Random side note: I miss Yuskevich

McKegg really got shafted lol

Guarantee he picked that himself. Every team has one...

 

[Crimson King]

I doubt this is what Nonis is thinking about

no, maybe not. but the players might be.

I really didn't care about the number thing with Burke (although I did feel it a pointless rule), but the thing I didn't like was that he didn't like any numbers higher than 29 for skaters unless they were rookies (then they get 40-59), but once Kessel came, all of a sudden he made an exception, and since he made an exception for him, he made an exception for Grabo. I don't get why you would start with the rule in the first place and then go back on it as soon as a star comes to town. Kessel could have been 18 I think. Ah well.

I liked Burke but I hated his stupid personal policies. The number thing was one of the dumbest.
