#9

Gordie Howe was #9.
Wayne Gretzky wanted #9 (but it was taken, so he settled for #99).
Bobby Hull was #9.
Maurice Richard was #9.
Mike Modano is #9.

My favorite player, Paul Kariya, wears #9 on the St. Louis Blues.

He used to be a Duck.

For the first time since Paul Kariya left in 2004, the Ducks have given his #9 to a new player, Bobby Ryan.

I'm a Bobby Ryan fan, but #9 on the Ducks will always mean Paul Kariya to me.


Who else is/was #9?
(I wore #9 in hockey, #13 in soccer)
