[Hard Canadian]

I recently got last years third jersey (the vintage style one) and I can't decide what name and number to put on it. I've narrowed it down to two.... either Tim Horton (7) or Bill Barilko (5).

Whats everyones opinion? And Leaf bashers save me your 'put Losers Since as the name and 67 as the number'.

:mrgreen:

I work for the Boys and Girls Club of Canada, and we have a partnership with Tim Hortons Camps. It's amazing what Horton did for kids, and what his namesake continues to do for them. So, I'm a little biased for Horton.

At the same time, the Hip sang a song about Barilko, so you can't go wrong with that one either.

If you really want to go old-school, you can always use Bower (one of the all-time underrated goalies) with the number 1, or even something like Eddie Shack, who was defnitely a character, and slap the old 23 on the back!

Zero would probably be appropriate.

I'd go for Horton as well.

You can never go wrong with "13 - SUNDIN". I know it's not old school, but screw it: man's a legend!

[cochise]

Only one would go on my back

93 Gilmour

Just the thought of what he did for the club during his time.............there is only one Dougie, no one will ever match him.

I went with Barilko.

It's good for Leaf games, as well as Hip concerts

That's what I've got on mine. Any of the classics are good too though. Sundin is the only current player even remotely worthy consideration.
