What are these numbers Gretzky has way more points than that
I reaally wish this listed the players
Pat Maroon carried a lot of weight… for #7
Blues #7:
Red Berenson 1968-1971
Garry Unger 1971-1979
Don Laurence 1980
Joe Mullen 1980-1986
Cliff Ronning 1986-1991
Dan Quinn 1991
Nelson Emerson 1992-1993
Alexei Kasatonov 1994
Greg Gilbert 1995-1996
Ricard Persson 1998-2000
Keith Tkachuk 2001-2010
Mike Van Ryn 2001
Pat Maroon 2019
These are so random
Often the highest scoring players wont have the highest scoring number because their numbers are retired
Would also be interesting to show how many players wore the number
Call me boring but this could make a really good chart instead of the graphic
It’s weird to see a Jets 2.0 player with such a high number, compared to other teams that have been around longer than us.
It took me way too long to figure out what this graphic meant. They should have said jersey number
Good post. Woulda been great tho if last names were on said jerseys. Jeez
11’s been good to us, with Claude Larose (first stint), Yvon Lambert, Ryan Walter, Kirk Muller, Saku Koivu and Brendan Gallagher among others.
Panarin with 3054 points already

As far as I can tell, Gretzky (99) and Stamkos (91) will be the only two out of all these players to be the *only* guys to ever wear that number for that ~~team~~ franchise.
For us it’s 21 players who wore 9, Tony Tanti (470), Don Lever (407) and JT Miller (368) have the most pts and wore the number the longest. The other 18 guys combined 680 pts. Most were in Vancouver for one or two seasons max.
Even that bozo Brendan Leipsic wore number 9 for one season for us
No. 9 for NJ:
Kirk Muller
Zach Parise
Taylor Hall
Devils players to hit 90+ points in a season, which has been done 5 times… Patrik Elias, Jack Hughes – Kirk Muller, Zach Parise, Taylor Hall.
Weird graphic or title. Had to come to the comment to understand it

If anyone was as curious as I was, only 2 other players have warn #99. Wilf Palement TOR and Rick Dudley AZ according to hockey reference stats.
Mostly just a question for the original six teams, but did they only take data from 1951 onwards? Hockey reference only has numbers back until that year for those teams, so for the Rangers for example you don’t see the Cook brothers for #5 and #6, or #7 for Frank Boucher on the numbers page for that franchise. Not sure if there is a good database of numbers players wore prior to that year.
It’s odd that #9 was the number the big goal scorers got for many years because it was Hull and Howe’s number (hence Gretzky’s 99), but neither Hull nor Howe lead their teams … in large part because the teams retired the number so there are no successors in Chicago or Detroit adding to the totals.
Detroit retired #9 in 1972. Who knows how high that number would be if a player could have worn it in the past 50 years?
12 is certainly not the number I would have thought of for the Flyers, but I guess it makes sense in a weird way.
19 for the Senators
Alexi Yashin – 1993-2001 491 points
Petr Schastlivy 2002-2004 25 points
Jason Spezza 2005-2014 611 points
Derick Brassard 2016-2018 77 points
Drake Batherson 2019-present 189 points
For some reason hockey reference also lists Zachary Senyshyn as having worn 19 with Ottawa, except Drake Batherson was also playing in those games and Senyshyn wore 56 with Ottawa.
It took me a good 2min to understand what this meant
