A buddy just wrote an article about hockey jersey #'s. I never thought about the history of jersey #'s so I loved reading about how #'s were put in place to sell programs. Also loved the story about the "cheap" Maple Leaf owner who didn't want to lose program revenue when name bars were made mandatory so he used name bars you couldn't read.
Any one have any other good stories about hockey #'s? Maybe how a player came to pick a certain # etc?
Here's the article: Link
