Here are some choices and a list of players who have worn the number for the Ducks:

Number 2
Bobby Dollas
Fredrik Olausson

Number 5
Drew Bannister
Robert Dirk
Kevin Haller
Ric Jackman
Ruslan Salei
Vitaly Vishnevski

Number 6
Sean Hill
Doug Houda
Don McSweeny
Vitaly Vishnevski

Number 25
Chris Pronger
Frank Banham
Todd Krygier
Adrien Plavsic
Kevin Sawyer
Terry Yake

Number 95
This number has never been worn by a Duck so far as I can see.

I voted "Other".

30 would be a good number for him in more ways than one.

I voted "other" I think 51 would look good, just flipping the 1 and 5 obviously.

save for the fact that would mean he hasn't "made the team" yet.

the Ducks use the Old School, Low numbers for the Team, high numbers for the Prospects/rookies.

4 and 7 are both off my list forever for different reasons. But it was a nice thought. I would rather see the 4 up on the jumbotron than on Lupul's back though. wink.gif

#16 makes sense but he'll have to ask Parros to give it up. 4x4=16

I came up with 15 x 2nd time around = 30. What is another reason? (don't laugh, it took me until last evening to figure out the one reason I did come up with!) smile.gif

I was hoping it would give him a goal to shoot for.

Put one of these ticket.gif on there for thirty of them if necessary.

Whatever he wants but 2-7 are traditionally defensmen numbers,right?. Other than that the only low numbers available I think are 11 and 14. Can he get #20 if Ryan Carter is in the AHL?

I'm confused. What's with all the hate on number 7?

I'm definitely missing something if this number isn't getting any love.

Carter earned a spot with his performance in the playoffs.

51 to complete the circle (Getz goes from 51 to 15, Lupul does the reverse).

I say #75 because I can't think of a single NHL player that has ever worn that number for more than a year or two. When you see #75 on the ice you know it's Joffrey Lupul!

Players who have worn #75:

Yann Danis, Montreal Canadiens 2005-06
Leroy Goldsworthy, Montreal Canadiens 1934-35
Michal Grosek, Winnipeg Jets 1993-96
Chris Hajt, Washington Capitals 2003-04
Brett Lindros, New York Islanders 1994-96
Colton Orr, Boston Bruins 2005-06
Walt Poddubny, Quebec Nordiques 1988-89

Michael Grosek played a total of 28 games for the Jets, Brett Lindros played in just 51 NHL games and the rest of those guys only wore #75 for one season. It's perfect! Lupul can claim #75 as his own and establish some history in that number.

Okay, sorry, Troy, gotta call you out here...

This read #83 before, and made reference to the year he was born... but continued with the same

"I can't think of a single NHL player that has ever worn that number for more than a year or two. When you see #** on the ice you know it's Joffrey Lupul!"

I was going to let it go and let someone else point out Ales Hemsky... But...

so did ya change it cause of Hemsky? or because 75 is closer to 15?

I changed it because of Hemsky. Can't have him wearing the same number as some stiff on the Oilers, can we?

It was originally #75, then I changed it to #83 to make it the year he was born, then remembered Hemsky and changed it back.

That's just as good. #93 would be nice as a tribute to the year the Ducks came into the NHL.
