I think .97 is the number that means "about to go off the shelves for good".

Sure, why not.

23 wasn’t going to be retired so shouldn’t be an issue

As I am an old guy if they were not going to retire it for Reinhart then no way for Sean.
Doesn’t mean I do not like Sean but Treliving discarded him instead of staying much longer with the Flames. At same they had him play injured way too much even when it was obvious he couldn’t contribute. That part of hockey business is ridiculous to keep playing an injured guy instead of getting someone healthy who might not be as good but we see the result and how well overall Sean has played since leaving Calgary

From what I read sounded more like the injured guy keeping himself in the lineup than being forced.
