Nope. Now when he lights it up with #27, I can say I liked him before he was super awesome. I'll probably have to get a fedora, thick rimmed glasses without lenses and hang out in record stores, but still.

I think jerseys like Iginla's #24, and Sven's #47 are neat. Some of it is because of how long Iggy wore #12, and some of it is because of how what Iggy and Sven did when they were wearing their original numbers. You see a lot more Michael Jordan #23 jerseys than #45 jerseys, and yes, I get that's a completely different situation.

I still like my Sven #47 jersey, and likely wouldn't swap the 4 for a 2 if they offered to switch it for free, but I'm also not going out and getting a Mark Girodano #46 jersey. I might get a Gaudreau white #53 jersey since he wore it in his NHL debut and scored, but wouldn't get a red one, since he didn't wear a red one in a game with that number.
