So many people want to get a player's name/number on their jersey, but then ask "what if he gets traded?" Now I see people with numbers on their jersey with no name- and that just simply looks dumb.
Wear your red, and wear it with pride.

that's why i went with Yelle. i didn't want to get Iginla, Phaneuf, or Kiprusoff as everyone and his dog has one of those jerseys, so i went with my favorite role player who the GM seems to love and will in all likelihood retire as a Flame. course then he has to go and be a nice guy and give Nolan his #, so my jersey is rendered "classic" regardless
but now having watched Nolan all year and loving the way he plays, i want to make his my next jersey purchase. if he does resign for next season then i'll have myself a pair of retro and modern #11's
