Probably the greatest honour a player can receive from a team is to have their jersey number retired. Sure, winning a Stanley Cup would likely provide a greater thrill, but having one's jersey number retired by a team says a lot about how much the franchise valued the career contributions of the player. In most cases, when a jersey number is retired, it is retired for ONE player who wore that number, but in some cases, most notably a few times with the Toronto Maple Leafs, 2 former players who wore the number are honoured. Let's take a trip down memory lane and see if you can correctly identify which players had their jersey numbers retired. Here we go!
