I was wondering if the Bears or Blackhawks had any greats who wore #23, b/c if it was, that would be the greatest # in Chicago sports: Bulls - Jordan, Sox - Dye (WS MVP), Cubs - Sandberg

Mikita wore 21. Doug Moans wore 2. Does that count?

And then Doug Mohns switched to #11 while Pat Stapleton was wearing #12.

 

I wouldn't count J.P. Bordeleau and Behn Wilson as memorable wearers of #23. Seriously though I can't think of a prominent Blackhawk wearing 23.

dont forget Ventura # 23

 

does Jerry Azumah count? # 23

Don't worry, there hasn't been anyone worth mentioning on the Hawks since about that time period

Shaun Gayle wore #23 as well

 

Not exactly a great, but he did wear it for a while

He played for the Bears in the 80's ( including on the '85 team ) as a safety and was pretty darn good at it also.

All right, then, he is the man for the Bears. That should be good enough. I don't follow hockey, so I could just say f*** it.

24 or 25 is more popular.

You should write it on #34 on RBs before and after Walter Payton wore it. Just a few...

 

Earl Cambel

Bo Jackson

Thurman Thomas

Herschel Walker

Here's an easier answer; the Slackhawks aren't a pimple on the huge ass of Chicago sports. There must be somebody on the new WNBA team wearing #23 that would be more worthy of mentioning than that crappy hockey franchise.

I don't follow hockey much, so that's cool. No one in this town even likes hockey

I remember Mike Prokopec. A little.

I wouldn't necessarily say that. I don't think they like Blackhawk hockey, but they like hockey.

Zoom was #23 on the Bears.
