Maybe Belfour, not sure if we'd ever see the others up there.

 

[Fire Sweeney]

The only one who may have an argument is Morrow

 

[piqued]

Nope, none of them. Next question

 

[Spotty 2 Hotty]

Nope.

They should also unretire the others except for Modano, Lehtinen, and Zubov. Those others have nothing to do with Dallas; let the Minnesota Wild take them with their North Stars nostalgia too.

 

[Regal]

I don’t think any of them played long enough or at a high enough level to be worth it.

 

[Took a pill in Sbisa]

You forgot an option for 'No'. The percentages of votes won't represent the opinions of the voters.

 

[Evergreen]

None

 

[dire wolf]

Nope.

Marty Turco's number being retired wouldn't be the worst thing. Was a top 3 goalie for 3 years and holds almost all their goalie records.

 

[wetcoast]

Nope, none of them. Next question

Came here to say this after viewing the list and thought for some of the guys listed "really WTF?"

I mean Carbs and his 5 years as the 4th line center.....really?

 

[Albatros]

Gave a vote to Marty Turco as the most deserving, but mainly because he's been their most prominent goalie career-wise. Belfour obviously won a cup there, but he only spent 5 years in town and wasn't very good towards the end when Turco the then-backup was basically lapping him for two seasons.

 

[Realgud]

Need a "None" option

 

[Mrb1p]

None. Maybe Zubov, Benn when he retires.

 

[MrHeiskanen]

None

 

[SnowblindNYR]

I guess I overestimated Belfour in Dallas.

People really overlooking Hatcher here. I’m kinda surprised his number isn’t already retired.

Captain for 8 years, won a Cup, made back-to-back finals. Consistently one of the top shutdown defensemen in the league. 3rd in Norris voting in 2003.

Thats a good point. He was with Dallas as long as Zubov was. Zubov generally got more Norris votes but it's not a humongous gap.

 

[TrillMike]

None

Damn, not even JOE?
Stars fans are not fans of retiring jerseys. Guess they don't wanna be like Avs and Ray.

 

[Caps8112]

slightly off topic but wish teams would stop retiring jerseys completely. Just honor the player and put a jersey in the rafters. Would rather see these numbers still worn. For the Caps, 7 will never be worn again. Nothing against Labre, but .................................
