Either as a centennial-season gesture or just to appease Dave Keon, the Maple Leafs have now officially retired their honoured numbers.

Besides Keon (#14), the now retired numbers include 1 (Turk Broda, Johnny Bower), 4 (Hap Day, Red Kelly), 5 (Bill Barilko), 6 (Ace Bailey), 7 (King Clancy, Tim Horton), 9 (Ted Kennedy, Charlie Conacher), 10 (Syl Apps, George Armstrong), 13 (Mats Sundin), 17 (Wendel Clark), 27 (Frank Mahovlich, Darryl Sittler) and 93 (Doug Gilmour). Barilko's and Bailey's had been the only ones officially retired previously.

Hopefully this'll inspire the Flames to end the "Forever a Flame" nonsense.
