If course McDonald’s number was deservedly retired.

I love Lanny as much as the next guy, but retirements are for truly special players. Al is a Conn Smythe winner and had 822 points 809 in regular season games as a d-man. Still the all-time Flames assist leader. Almost 1,000 PIMs to boot. A renowned slap shot.
