10pavelbure96 Posted January 15, 2017 Share Posted January 15, 2017 Retire 22 33 and Luongo. Burrows to the ROH. I don't think anyone else from this Era of canucks will get either honor. Maybe Hansen if he stays with us his whole career would get a ROH as I feel he is one of the most underrated players in the league Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's been some great players on this team but too much celebration of overall mediocrity. In my opinion the only numbers that should be in the rafters as of now are 16 and 10, the others belong in the RoH with Burrows included some day. i agree entirely steamer went up so we could say the team retired someone and naslund cuz.. well i really cannot answer that one i do think the sedins should be retired though luongo. likely. RoH for sure if not retired steamer and naslund should both be RoH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here for what, about 6 years... forget it, not a Canuck for long enough. bure played 428 games for the canucks luongo played 448 games for the canucks bure is in the hhof... the 1st canuck to be so honoured luongo is almost certain to follow .. the 1st canuck goalie to be so honoured you think bure's jersey should be removed from the rafters ??? his best years were clearly with the canucks and i think luongo's were as well luongo has just had a longer career so has played more games elsewhere Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And because he's a goalie, i don't see him going to the hall. They are a funny bunch when it comes to goaltenders getting in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CanuckleHorse Posted January 15, 2017 Share Posted January 15, 2017 I think retiring numbers is stupid we can't change it now but that was 1 of the worst thing the NHL ever did their name would have been good enough I'd love to see another #10 or even #16 out there.

Curtis Joseph still not in or even mentioned much. Has more wins than Lui. Multiple cups and Vezina winners are the only ones to get voted in for the last 30 years or so. Lots of other goalies overlooked also. If you are a forward or offensive defence man, no problem you're voted in! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well maybe Gretzs number deserves the recognition but still there is a part of me that don't like taking #s away maybe his picture with all his accomplishments in every arena would have been good enough.

I have a hard time seeing they will induct one guy with no Vezina or Cup to his name when the rest have multiples of those awards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nuxfanabroad Posted January 15, 2017 Share Posted January 15, 2017 Time to introduce decimal points. So if a guy drafted by Mtl liked Lafleur, he can wear 10.1 Another innovative concept from far away... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GB5 Posted January 15, 2017 Share Posted January 15, 2017 As many others have said, ROH = yes, retired number = no One other thing though since he has been a long time Canuck and core member for so long an additional honour is to not let anyone use #14 for a few years.
