Regarding Leiweke's statement to Blake, that was also back in the day when Leiweke was more about flash and star power. I think Dean has opened his eyes to another way. No, there shouldn't be any more numbers going to the rafters unless and until it's a home grown player's number with his name on the Stanley Cup as a King.
It was brought up in an interview, maybe the interview Leiweke did with the LA Times, that it will happen someday, but not for a while.
