NYIFC Comments: Long overdue honor for two of many. Question here is teams Hall of Fame Banner, or real number retirements? Bob Bourne, Ken Morrow, and most of core of four merit same treatment. Obviously Lee/Tonelli have too much character to not share the number, and no doubt same would have happened if Tavares were still wearing it here.
