Seems silly to blame Burke for something that goes on all the time on every NHL team.

all I'm saying is why not let the guys wear the numbers they want? I don't see the fuss about high numbers ... some of the greatest players in league history have worn high numbers. Anyway, don't want to derail the thread with this.
I remember Sven saying back then that he wouldn't change from 47 to something else because a lot of people had already bought a 47 jersey. Maybe he has changed his mind about this ... or has been told to change his mind about this
