to me it comes down to:
1) when I think of the greatest Flames ever, he is one of them, and he is more of one than Vernon (to me at least). Therefore logically if Vernon is retired...
2) you'd have to be an idiot to be a rookie and declare #14 as your number. It's unlikely anybody else wears that number out of respect, so just do the right thing. Fleury made your organization a ridiculous amount of money, and really I think it is simply inevitable anyway.
