Do they retire his number?
Second best player in lightning history
Who's the best?
And of course he'll have his # retired-and it should be. However only after Vinny-he deserves to be the first Lightning to have his # retired.
In the end we granted Marty's wishes. Family and his retirement location were most important to him. My guess is he comes up short on the number retirement, statue and HOF.

People are out to lunch at 3 am if they think MSL doesn't get his jersey retired.
Well there's two ways it doesn't happen:
1) Vinik truly does not believe in retiring numbers. In that case it's not anything against Marty, just a stubborn owner with his own ideas about tradition.
2) Marty absolutely refuses to make up with the organization. Or maybe not at least while Yzerman is still around. Then we might be waiting a while.
