Hi Mike,
I was wondering if you could let me know what Tucker's cap B.B #16 stand for...
Thanks,
Samantha
Back on April 21, the 53rd anniversary of a certain legendary Maple Leafs goal, I explained what Darcy Tucker's BB16 cap stood for. Here's what I wrote then. "Throughout the first round of this year's playoffs, Leaf players have been wearing a blue cap with BB16 embroidered on the front. The "BB" is to invoke the spirit of Bill Barilko while 16 represents the number of games a team must win in order to capture Lord Stanley's Mug."
If you're interested in reading a little more about Bill Barilko's goal and seeing some cool photos I've collected, visit my tribute to Bill Barilko.
