19

[Cecil Terwilliger]

That’s a pretty safe bet right?

[CedarMeter]

I'm guessing.

As for Buium. Minnesota's defense is absolutely decimated by injury right now. Middleton and Spurgeon are out. If the Flames lost a Dman to injury then I think Parekh would draw in.

At this point if Parekh doesnt play this season I am ok with it as it likely means the Flames were in the race until the last game.

It's a delicate balance, any disruption and the team could lose. Better keep the players comatose between games to lessen distractions.

89. Best case he sticks with 89, worst case you can say you were a fan before he even made the team. He at least wore the number in camp and during pre-season

[TrentCrimmIndependent]

Just wait to get the jersey until you know for sure?

Don't know why some folks are so eager to throw money at merch before a kid's played.

I have a Sven!

I went Coronato instead. He was my original choice. I jinxed Baertschi, no need to do it to Zayne too.

89 would be cool. Kinda like having Iginla 24 on a pedestal jersey. It makes it OG.

Oh whew, I was worried my jersey was the one that jinxed him!

[Royle9]

I don’t have the most up to date info on this, but I was told that Zayne can have 19 should he choose. AFAIK he has not made a decision yet.

[Paulie Walnuts]

Someone needs to take 14.

[Johnny Makarov]

Just put a 9 on for now and add the other digit later.

[CedarMeter]

89?

So many on here wanted that number up in the rafters. Just not recently.

[Jiri Hrdina]

The problem is when they give that number to someone, Theo will squawk about it and then those that are still big fans of his, will also squawk.
They don't want to do that to a player, particularly a young one.
It will remain but un-used and un-retired. Which is about right.
