Vancouver Canucks roundtable: Should they retire Roberto Luongo’s number?

Former Vancouver Canucks All-Star goalie Roberto Luongo retired this offseason, and the Florida Panthers announced that they would retire his No. 1 uniform next year.

Luongo will be the first player to have his number raised to the rafters of the BB&T Center. But should the Canucks honour ‘Bobby Lu’ and retire No. 1 as well? Only Trevor Linden’s No. 16, Stan Smyl’s No. 12, Pavel Bure’s No. 10 and Marlus Naslund’s No. ho19 have been retired by the organization.

Daniel and Henrik Sedin will see No. 22 and 33, respectively, retired this upcoming season.
