JeffB Posted May 6, 2011 Report Share Posted May 6, 2011 Today's research question of the day is... Did Ziggy Palffy ever wear #68 on an Islanders fisherman jersey? HockeyDB.com shows Palffy with both 68 and 16 in 1995-96, but I was unable to locate a single image of him wearing #68 in that jersey. Pics from the previous year in #68 can be found but I've come up empty on the fisherman jerseys. FYI, It would have been early in the season when they wore the Avalanche style A. Perhaps some hockey cards could confirm this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IslesHockey21 Posted May 6, 2011 Report Share Posted May 6, 2011 I'm 99.99999% sure he never wore #68 in the Fisherman jersey. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mharolde Posted May 6, 2011 Report Share Posted May 6, 2011 Hey JeffB, I found a picture of Ziggy in a fisherman jersey with #68. It is on a trading card on ebay. I am at work and am blocked from uploading the pic to a hosting service. If you can't find it I will post the pic when I get home. The seller is jjussila.
