Retired numbers

Burrows will be in the ring of honour because it recognizes charity work and being a part of the community as well. Ohlund should be ring of honour. The only Canucks who will have the honor of jersey retirement will be the sedins, jersey retirements aren't given out just for the sake of it, look how long it took Bure to have his number retired.

Luongo is a maybe, he was something special when he was here.

Maybe the Sedins. The question I have is, what happens if the Canucks win the Stanley Cup some day? Will all the members of that team have their numbers retired? In my opinion the organization should try their best to not retire any more numbers of non-champions. Load up that ring of honour.

The two greatest players in franchise history shouldn't have their number retired? I'm sorry but cup or no, the Sedins have done so much for this franchise it would be downright insulting not to have their numbers in the rafters.

And I have zero doubt they will.

Tough to change now that the precedent has been set. Based on the players they have already retired, the Sedins are both a given.

No chance for Luongo. That is saying no to all future goalies wanting to use #1 on their jersey for someone who deserves respect, but not the amount that it takes to retire your jersey.

To me the only goalie number that should be retired will be the one that gets them a cup or more.
