octopusonice 0 Report post Posted June 20, 2008 I'd have to think he's retiring. The only thing left for him to do was get the Cup. We're not going to retire his number, though... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gees, if people on this forum had their way the entire team would be in the rafters and the Wings would have to start using hexadecimal codes to number their players. Left Wing, 1AF2!

octopusonice 0 Report post Posted June 20, 2008 That was a jab at the Avs. I never miss out on an opportunity to throw them under the bus! I like the comment about hexadecimal. I remember a computer science test where I had to convert "BEEF" from hexadecimal to binary. Now there's a good number for an enforcer type. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I dunno, I personally want to see jersey numbers based off math formulas and stuff like that. e=mc2, PI*r squared, B X W X H...... That'll be great! As for the original topic at hand, who the heck knows right now. Nothing has really been reported one way or the other towards Drake's decision. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TNBT 3 Report post Posted June 21, 2008 I'm really not sure what he will decide to do. On one hand, there is no better way to walk away from the game than with the Stanley Cup. However, we also have a team that will contend again next year, and I'm sure Dallas knows that the only thing better than one Stanley Cup is two. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
