I think Bennett wins 93, but had to go with him here given his impact on a playoff series wearing 63

You could argue #63 Sam Bennett was better than #93 Sam Bennett

Maybe he should try #39 next year and wear Gilmores Flames number

I miss 18-year-old Sam Bennett.

I remember when he scored his first NHL goal in the playoffs. The Dome went crazy, and when they showed him on the jumbotron after he returned to the bench, he looked up, saw himself, and smiled. The Dome got even louder after that.

I think Cammalleri should win for 93, tbh

But Bennett definitely deserves 63

its going to be an interesting discussion- wasn't Cammalleri's 93 tenure essentially 28 games playing out the string in a nonplayoff year? granted him winning 93 is the 'cleanest way' to give both he and Bennett a win given that Cammy had a hard time with his natural number- and then we could give 2nd place back to Titov for 13

Yeah but Cammy coming back was absurdly exciting and he played at a level that Bennett has never come close to reaching

Unrelated to this particular vote, but one thing I have noticed looking at the first post. One by one great Swedes like Loob, Nillson, Huselius, Lindholm were being denied by Flames legends, who happened to wear the same number, until Rasmus Anderson won with his secondary number.

One of Sutter's beloved big Western Canadian guys. Signed with the Flames coming out of the lockout and spent 4 years in the Flames system.

He eventually made it into 100 total NHL regular season and playoff games in his career (mostly with Minnesota).

Basically Lance Bouma a few years before Bouma, except he didn't have the one good year that Bouma did.

I remember Peters getting some time in Dallas

There were a lot of grinders I remember who did slightly better after leaving the Flames. Peters, Grant, Van Der Gulik, Cracknell, even Nystrom and Prust to an extent
