These late numbers are such a mix bag. It's either a clear cut guy who wears a traditionally odd number (like with Gilmour/39)
Or
Arguing over which 13th forward was most memorable
As for Gilmour himself, so much history with this guy and the team. We traded someone who'd become one of the games most prolific goal scorers of all time, got our cup, then made one of the worst trades of all time fueled by internal drama.
All this was when I was still just a kid so it went over my head, but whether it was a Flames jersey or Leafs jersey, Gilmour was always one of my favorites.
