You'll likely need to remove the old numbers and name bar yourself and they'll sew new ones onto the blank jersey. You won't likely find someone who will remove them for you.
As long as they're sewn on and not heat-sealed, the old numbers and name bar are pretty easy to remove. Go to a fabric or crafts store and buy a seam ripper. You should be able to get one for less than $5. Take your time and cut the threads holding the numbers on.
Depending on how old the jersey is, you'll probably still be able to see the outline of where the old numbers were stitched on, so it would be best if you could just replace the name bar since it's a simple rectangle and pick someone with the same number as the person you're replacing... e.g., Cammalleri for 13, or Tim Hunter for 19 if it's a retro. Or, if it's a 19, you could wait until Matt Coronato signs in the spring and hope he keeps the same number from Harvard. I think that's what I might do with my old #19.
