It was his number in the KHL and on the Marlies, and it would be right up his alley of trollitude if he wore the same number as Crosby.

Most likely for the funnies it would get.

He would be the more charismatic, and more effective #87 in the playoffs.

I could see it now, just like Isles with B. Lindros "We have the better #87!"

Yeah #87 would just be the ultimate troll. But I'm gonna assume he isn't gonna wear it out of respect for Crosby.

Komarov's twitter bio says he is #47 for the Leafs so we can assume he is using that again (before he resigned with us it didn't say that).

I think Broll switching to #41 pretty much confirms Polak will stick with #46.

Picture of Frattin at the Leafs anthem singer auditions with Gardiner and Rielly. They all had their jerseys on and Frattin had #39 on his back, so that just about confirms that.

New sweater numbers going into training camp:

Booth #20
Kontiola #15
Komarov #47
Winnik #26
Polak #46
Robidas #12
Santorelli #25
Frattin #39

Robidas "1+2=3"

I hope Komarov takes 87. Please do it Leo

If he does that, I will worship him eternally.

Anyone know which number Nylander used in the on-ice testing today? He isn't #62 like he was in the rookie tourny.

edit: nvm he is still #62.. not sure why I thought otherwise.

Because it would be awesome.
