What number do you wear

[number21 3]

i was randomly given #21 on my last team, which was cool since my b-day is 06/21.

this new team i grabbed #3 from the box since I am a third. (as in the name suffix III)

You're not worthy of Orr, but you're worthy of Shore?

Good point but since they don't allow decimals on jerseys (I'd be 0.1)

#1

Why? So I get the first bunk on the train. :)

I toyed with using #20 for a while, but having never studied with Tretiak, something about it felt wrong.

Never seen a skater wear #1 - apart from the times I've had to loan out my jersey, and even then the guy always stuck a number in front of it.

Best number of all time, hwoever, has got to be Bill Lee's with the Sox. He came in and asked for 337; equipment manager looks at him like he's insane. Lee says it's so that when he's standing on his head, the fans can read his name. Leet-speak before its time...

When I skate out, I'm not too picky. Usually if I'm playing D I try to get 2, 3, or 4; if I'm playing up front, 13 or 17.

I ussually try for 8 because of Cam, but, I'm on a new team and it was taken so I took my old HS football # of 25. I actually tried to bribe the guy who had #8 with a Rafalski Hex-1 and he sad NO!

I wear 6, because it's a number nobody really wants, so whenever I join a new team, I can usually get it. I also like it because there really aren't any famous players to have worn it, so I'm not wearing someone else's number. It's just mine... Though I seem to remember a show a while ago with Joe Thornton where he said that was why he picked 6 when he got to Boston, so maybe I am still stealing someone's idea.

A guy on my team traded a pair of gloves to wear #14 last year.

I wear 78. I created myself in one of the NHL games years ago for gits and shiggles, and when it came to pick a number I just held down the button and looked away. It landed on 78. I wore 27 for a couple of seasons (it's my birthday) but I'll probably just stick with 78 from now on. At least I know it'll always be available.

I wear number 33 because of my hero St.Patrick. had to switch last year to 35 though as there was already a number 33 on the team. wore 1 in juniors because thats all they had printed up :(

It's been a challenge though-out her hockey and especially a few years ago, when MissD wasn't picked up at try-outs because they had filled their quota of kids from 1992 (girls' hockey is a 2 or 3 yr age band). She couldn't get her number on the team that she landed on so she picked 92. It's not JUST her YOB... what the number represents is...

"F-you I'm a '92"

#37... Was my number all through Bantams, high school and college hockey. When I got to Jr. hockey the starting tender was 37 so i got #3, and in midget our jerseys were pre-numbered so I had 10 and 12.... I guess 2nd choice would be 17. I was a huge jari kurri fan when I was younger...

77, just the number my older cousin wore when he played Junior C and I was growing up watching him. Have had it every year except for my second peewee year because there was no C on number 77 and they wouldn't let me change it, so I was 17 that year. This year though, got 77 in Migget, but in high school I have 17, because the number's was from 1-25.

Currently, I wear 17, for Kharlamov/Kovalchuk. It was actually my third choice. I've been wearing it for a couple years now.

Also used to wear 10 (Bure), 89 (Mogilny), 91 (Fedorov).

46.

I used to play baseball, and my favorite pitcher was Andy Pettite of the Yankees. So when I picked my #s in hockey, it was always that
