A quick e-mail from a Ducks spokesperson today revealed the digts we’ve all been waiting for…
Saku Koivu will wear #11
Joffrey Lupul will wear #14
Nick Boynton will wear #4
Koivu gets to keep the number he wore with the Canadiens, a natural choice since 11 wasn’t already taken. Lupul, who wore #15 as a Mighty Duck and Philadelphia Flyer, apparently couldn’t convince Ryan Getzlaf to cede his current number.
