I don't like him, but it does not bother me his banner is there.

He donates tickets to kids for Hitmen games. Okay by me.

It'll make for TV fodder one way or the other. "Getzlaf returns to try and defeat his junior city" vs. "Flames take down Getzlaf's banner".

Horrible idea. Even if you don't believe in bulletin board material, have to think that would fire him up a bit.

It's honoring his jr career that he played here. Leave it be.

But it is only in the section that looks straight up at that banner...


What a jerk!

Really? This is a concern?

Wouldn't it be better to leave it there as a distraction? It's a Getzlaf pic with hair.

What would be funny is if the people sitting behind the ducks bench all wore bald caps to the game.

I've heard this a bunch of times lately and am pleasantly surprised that everyone in here seems to agree with me that this would be petty and silly.

Would that be to mock Getzlaf or support Stajan? I highly doubt Getzlaf is the only player on either side lacking the hair

Mock Getzlaf and support our boys. Reminder of the battle between getz and ovi this year where ovi said he was mad because he has hair and Getzlaf doesn't.

So we agree it is a terrible suggestion. No need to keep the thread open. It would be a slap in the face to a guy who was a big part of this city. Just go back and read about how special it was for him when it was put up there.
Plus we don't need to anger him. Angry Getz is scary.
