Ducky Posted July 7, 2018 Report Share Posted July 7, 2018 Kaner asked Bobby Hull if he could wear 9 while a Jet. Some of the greatest players ever have worn 9. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoss Posted July 7, 2018 Author Report Share Posted July 7, 2018 Remember when Cory Conacher asked Patrick Kane if he could wear 88 in Buffalo? That was awkward. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ottosmagic13 Posted July 7, 2018 Report Share Posted July 7, 2018 Personally I’m still going to wear my Eichel #15 Jerseys, if I ever take off my Dahlin Jersey. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm quite sure Eichel doesn't officially know if he will be C this year. I expect it will be announced coming out of training camp. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep. “Hey Patty, I’m probably a lifer in the A, but do you mind if I....?” Jack picks 9? I love it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their "40th Anniversary" jerseys were revealed in September 2010, so I would expect the 50th to be 2020-21. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoss Posted July 7, 2018 Author Report Share Posted July 7, 2018 2020-21 is also a lockout season, so that’s something we have to look forward to. Finally get royal blue then bam lockout. It’s also Vancouver’s 50th, so I could see an outdoor game between the two. Or just both of us getting our own. Buffalo vs Toronto and Vancouver vs Seattle.

PASabreFan Posted July 7, 2018 Report Share Posted July 7, 2018 I find this news weird and somewhat troubling. What does it say if a number means that much to a player? Is Eichel the jello-brainiest Sabre since "Zen master" Millsie? I keep thinking the franchise has bottomed out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pittsburgh seems to be doing just fine. Everything in Crosby's life is based on his birth date ... August 7, 1987. Which is rather OCDish. Not that there is anything wrong with that. I am a card carrying member of the OCD club. I'm sure you know that. 1 hour ago, Sabel79 said: Oh, Steve. Honey... just no. Exactly. We all know it Roysie.

So help me god if they lockout that year - the year the Sabres should just be hitting their stride. Please no.

And it's not like it's some rando swich from Jack, 9 was always his number and likely would have been what he started with sans Evander.

He asked for 11 and the Sabres obviously laughed at him (that's actually what they said in the video reveal of 15). But yes, if 9 were available he would've definitely taken that.
