53 is special to BO for some personal reason right? Ex team mate or something...

Ian Jenkins was drafted by London the same year as Bo. Tragically, Ian passed away a few weeks later. Bo wears Ian's 53 to honour him. They were pretty close.

25 for a goalie is a little odd. I like it but was surprised when I read that today. Does anyone else know any former goalies who wore 25?

Maybe he wants to be the next best goalie with his own unique #

They were not close. If I recall correctly, they only met eachother a few times, if at all. Also Bo flipped Ian's 35 to 53.

Markstrom wore 25 in FLA also 33 and 35.

Two former Canuck goalies also wore 25 : Charlie Hodge and George Gardner.

(not with the Canucks though)

I think it was the fact he had it in FLA , and not that he idolizes these two.

Their stats (as Canucks) are similar to Markstrom's NHL totals

Gardner: 9 W 22 L 4 T 3.84 GAA

Hodge: 15 W 13 L 5 T 3.42 GAA

Jacob: 13 W 28 L 5 OTL 3.18 GAA

Or it's because he's 25 yrs old........

Bartkowski - give him #43. Number he wore in Boston. Or #3 the number he wore in Providence.

Sutter - can see him taking one of #18, #21, #27 or #61

Virtanen - #18 if he makes the team and if Sutter takes another number, or if Sutter takes #18, Virt taking #77 or #81

Listed:

Biega - #55

Friesen - #56

Grenier - #65

Speculated:

Subban - #67

Cassels - #91

With all due respect to the Maki family, Canucks should bring no. 11 back into circulation.
