To me it should just be #2, #9, #12. #9 is a bit of a weak candidate, but it's hard to argue his impact to club and city.
Kipper was fantastic, but I think a Vezina win doesn't auto get your number retired.

I am on the fence with MacInnis. Arguably our best player in franchise history but left and became more associated to the Blues post career.
If I had my way I would retire #9 and #12 maybe #2 but then have a ring of honour that recognizes significant players that we have had or players that made an impact in the city post retirement.
Peplinski
Fleury
Conroy
Langkow
Warrener
Macoun
Otto
Vernon
Regehr
Kipper
Roberts
Nieuwendyk
Suter
Mullen
Loob
Sarich
Stajan
Brodie eventually
Backlund eventually
Darryl Sutter
Ken King
Johnson
Crisp
The only guy I would snub is Gilmour.
Does #5 get retired? If he gets to 1000 games I would say maybe?
