I think of LaPointe more but he signed to Boston of his own free will. Mick deserves it more.

Not as a player but as a person

I dunno. I love mick and he will always be on display at LCA in some way or another but I dunno about a jersey retirement.

Idk about jersey retirement but maybe some creative kind of hybrid statue that honours both his playing and broadcasting careers. Something like him holding a stick in one hand an a mic in the other.

No. Come on.

Not sure I’m going as far as a jersey retirement here and I am a huge Mick fan like pretty much all of us. I’m nearly 40 years old and this man was my childhood and still getting after it today. Something should be done when he retires and I really don’t know what it should be maybe hang his name in the rafters or do something like a compilation statue that blends both his player career with the team and him as an announcer holding a mic. You could even put it in two parts of the arena as to draw you over to a different part of the arena where you have restaurants.

Retire #91 first

No, but they should absolutely retire his flannel.

Not jersey, but he should be permanently honored in some way whenever he retires.

He *has* to be honored in *some* permanent way, can’t imagine wings being the same without him.
Jersey is a pretty huge stretch though, but if there’s no other way, at all, to commemorate him, then sure, but only as an absolute last resort. Ideally they’d raise a flannel banner with just « Redmond » in the rafters

No, but they should make it so that whoever has the number has to grow a mustache.
Even if it’s awful wispy nonsense, you want the number then start growin’.

Rafters is for Their on ice performance, and should be reserved for the few special ones. But an statue would be Nice.
