Yeah, speaking as a resident Jets fan, Teemu wore 13 from 1992-1995, switching to number eight (which he wore in Finland with Jokerit) after Randy Carlyle retired, wearing it from 1995 to 2004 with Anaheim, San Jose, and Colorado. Teemu wore 13 during 2005-06 when he returned to Anaheim because Sandis "I'll have another" Ozolinsh briefly wore 8. The next year Selanne returned to his familiar number eight.
Freak, after 76 goals and 132 points (I was at both record breaking games in '93) as a rookie it would be a hard feat to even come close to equalling those totals. Selanne did enjoy some solid years with Anaheim in his first stint finishing in the top three in scoring twice, until the washout years with Sharks and Avalanche, before his miraculous return to offensive prowess after the lockout.
I am very tired.
