MK19 Posted August 13, 2007 Share Posted August 13, 2007 Hey guys, this is Moe Khan of The team 990, for those who might know, what number will Carey Price wear this year for the Canadiens, #31??? Thanks for your help. Moe Khan Team 990 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trizzak Posted August 13, 2007 Share Posted August 13, 2007 He wore #29 for the Bulldogs...Grabovski wore #31 Not sure if that will translate to the NHL, but there ya go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lazy26 Posted August 13, 2007 Share Posted August 13, 2007 Price wore #31 for training camp/pre-season last year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Posted August 13, 2007 Share Posted August 13, 2007 He wore #29 for the Bulldogs...Grabovski wore #31 Not sure if that will translate to the NHL, but there ya go. I think Grabovski wore #59 in his 2 game stint with Montreal last season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Athlétique.Canadien Posted August 13, 2007 Share Posted August 13, 2007 Hmmm, will Sergei Kostitsyn get his #47 if he's called up or is Downey still hanging around? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tcd74 Posted August 13, 2007 Share Posted August 13, 2007 Somehow I doubt that Price will be wearing #29 with the Canadiens. TC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Habitforming Posted August 14, 2007 Share Posted August 14, 2007 We know it isn't going to be 29 or 1 like he wore with the Bulldogs and team Canada repectively. 31 or Plekanec's old 35 are my bet...but he likely won't make the habs this year...they keep saying he is going to be the number one wherever he lands and I can't see them trading Huet right now.

dlbalr Posted August 15, 2007 Share Posted August 15, 2007 Plekanec's old 35? Is he changing numbers? Yep, Plekanec changed to his old familiar #14 that he wears for the Czechs and wore with the Bulldogs. Price was assigned #31 from the first time he took to the ice in the development camp in 2005, he'll keep that number for the foreseeable future (same goes for Chipchura and #28 - they got "real numbers" from day one).

JMMR Posted August 15, 2007 Share Posted August 15, 2007 I would have loved to see chip in 17#. As for Price anything other than 31 and I would be suprised. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ehjay Posted August 18, 2007 Share Posted August 18, 2007 Can he wear 00??? he could say it represents his goals against average :bow: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JMMR Posted August 19, 2007 Share Posted August 19, 2007 Can he wear 00??? he could say it represents his goals against average :bow: No at one point it was allowed because Belfour wore it before but that number can NOT be worn in the NHL.

Wamsley01 Posted August 21, 2007 Share Posted August 21, 2007 No who is that? Neil Sheehy was some scrub on the Flames in the 80s. I think he played with the Whalers as well. He wore 00. But I think it is now banned in the NHL. I may be wrong. He is the last player I remember wearing it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wamsley01 Posted August 21, 2007 Share Posted August 21, 2007 No at one point it was allowed because Belfour wore it before but that number can NOT be worn in the NHL. I don't recall Belfour ever wearing 00. I know he had to ask the NHL permission to use 20 in honour of Tretiak when he was with the Sharks. But he wore 30 before that as far as I know.

ShortHanded Posted August 21, 2007 Share Posted August 21, 2007 I would have loved to see chip in 17#. As for Price anything other than 31 and I would be suprised. just curious, is that Chip's old junior number, or why are you talking about it?

saskhab Posted August 21, 2007 Share Posted August 21, 2007 Martin Biron wore 00 when he was called up by Buffalo from the QMJHL for his NHL debut. I think he was the last guy to wear it. I don't know why it was banned or when it was, but it was sometime in the late '90s. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tony Posted August 21, 2007 Share Posted August 21, 2007 I doubt Price would wear #33. It might be retired soon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bar Posted August 21, 2007 Share Posted August 21, 2007 This is sort of off topic but you think anyone would ever be ballsy (this a word?) enough to wear 66 or 99? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Athlétique.Canadien Posted August 21, 2007 Share Posted August 21, 2007 This is sort of off topic but you think anyone would ever be ballsy (this a word?) enough to wear 66 or 99? 99 is closed. The NHL retired it league wide. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
