Confirmed with Link: Numbers for the New Guys

Zadorov is channeling his inner Sarich.

For some weird reason, I've always liked #32 but I wish Beauchemin went with something else. Love the choices by Greg and Soderberg. Not a fan of #14 and #16. Wish they went with #57 and #51/61 instead. Oh well, at least I can order my Soderberg jersey now.

Hopefully Rantanen becomes another one of the killer 9's or whatever we have been calling them. For some reason I like that a lot of guys have that number connection.

I do too. I'm pretty sure whenever he gets to choose a number he'll take 96.

How dare Comeau take the mighty Ian Laperriere's jersey number

That is awfully a humongous slap in the face for Siemens. I understand he probably won't care, but Siemens is like older than Zadorov and got his number stolen. 61 looks better on Zadorov anyway.


Rantanen might just get assigned a random rookie jersey number, that is normally how Avs do it for players not named Duchene or MacKinnon.

If the tenth pick makes the team out of camp in year one, I don't know about that. Especially when it's a number like that since it doesn't seem like we have anything against big numbers.

I didn't even think of that angle, but seeing how Siemens is probably 10th or more on the depth chart, while Zadorov is in the top 4... Zadorov wins regardless of age.

Siemens played one game. So did Agozzino and they gave his 32 away too.

Beauchemin #32

I like that. I think it tips the Avs' hand that Hejduk will (rightly) get his number retired at some point.

This is truly the end for Riku Hahl as an Av

Who's taking 90?

Really hate that they aren't using our numbers. They are using the new font, which is the Canucks.
