Phuck the Cubs Posted May 15, 2006 Share Posted May 15, 2006 I was wondering if the Bears or Blackhawks had any greats who wore #23, b/c if it was, that would be the greatest # in Chicago sports: Bulls - Jordan, Sox - Dye (WS MVP), Cubs - Sandberg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YASNY Posted May 15, 2006 Share Posted May 15, 2006 Mikita wore 21. Doug Moans wore 2. Does that count? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest JimH Posted May 15, 2006 Share Posted May 15, 2006 Mikita wore 21. Doug Moans wore 2. Does that count? And then Doug Mohns switched to #11 while Pat Stapleton was wearing #12. I wouldn't count J.P. Bordeleau and Behn Wilson as memorable wearers of #23. Seriously though I can't think of a prominent Blackhawk wearing 23.

Credepopsup Posted May 15, 2006 Share Posted May 15, 2006 Here's a list of who's worn which number for the Hawks. It's an old site, so it only includes players upto the end of the 96/97 season.

All right, then, he is the man for the Bears. That should be good enough. I don't follow hockey, so I could just say f*** it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
