Graves Night Speculation

With the Rangers 2008-2009 schedule announced today, Steve Zipay at Blue Notes speculates on when Adam Graves retirement ceremony might be...

"Nov. 10: Possible date of ceremony to retire Adam Graves' No. 9 before home game against Edmonton, where Graves starred. Team says no date has been set. Other possibilities: Jan. 7 against Montreal, Jan. 20 vs. Anaheim."

...if I were a betting man (and I am, not a very good one, but one nonetheless) I would go with Nov. 10th against Edmonton.

Keep in mind the opponents when the other numbers were retired ...

Leetch vs Atlanta
Richter vs Minnesota

Messier was against Edmonton, as only proper, but that was Messier. Who knows if the Rangers will be as thoughtful this time, or as greedy as the others ...
