Number 19

Hockey in the late 1990s was dominated by two teams: the Detroit Red Wings & Colorado Avalanche. Between 1995 & 2001, the two squads combined to win five Stanley Cups. Both teams were blessed with stalwart defenders, sharp shooters & clutch goalkeepers. The glue that cemented them into championship teams was a pair of heart-&-soul captains who wore No. 19. For the Wings it was Steve Yzerman, while the Avalanche were led by Joe Sakic.

So Stevie or Joe, who's No. 1 at No. 19?
