As the hockey season gets on its way once again this year, I thought it might be interesting to take a look at some guys who have sported The Number on their sweater. Here is Mikhail Yakubov of the Florida Panthers skating against the Toronto Maple Leafs during the NHL game at Air Canada Centre on April 11, 2006 in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. Toronto won 6-5.

Yakubov was drafted 10th overall by the Chicago Blackhawks in the 2000 NHL Entry Draft. He is currently playing for Cherepovets Severstal in Russia.
