Who Has Worn #89?

Question

I was wondering who if anyone has worn #89 in the NHL only and the team they played for. If anyone has a link or a list of anyone who has worn #89 and their team I would appreciate it.

Answer 1

For sure Alexander Mogilny, I honestly don't recall anyone else wearing it for a very long period of time at least.

Answer 2

I love answering number questions.

There have only been 5 players ever to wear number 89.

I will tell you the years they wore the number with the team, not all the years they played with that one team. Here are all the players who have ever worn 89 in the NHL:

Alexander Mogilny - he wore it with:

Buffalo (1989 - 1995)

Vancouver (1995 - 2000)

New Jersey (2000 - 2001, 2005 - 2006)

Toronto (2001 - 2004)

Mike Comrie - he wore it with:

Edmonton (2000 - 2003)

Philadelphia (2003 - 2004)

Pheonix (2004 - 2007)

Ottawa (2007 - 2007)

New York Islanders (2007 - present)

Darren Turcotte:

Winnipeg (1995 - 1996)

David Chyzowski:

New York Islanders (1995 - 1996)

Zdenek Blatny:

Boston Bruins (2005 - 2006; switched after 2 games with 89 to number 23 with Boston; played 5 games that season)

Sam Gagner:

Edmonton Oilers (2007 - present)

Answer 3

The complete list of all players who have worn 89 in the NHL:

Zdenek Blatny (Atlanta/Bruins/Tampa) - wears 41 now, but spent the last few years in the minors

Dave Chyzowski (Islanders/Blackhawks/ now in Austria) - drafted 2nd overall, but spent most of his career in the minors

Mike Comrie (Oilers/Flyers/Phoenix/Ottowa/Islanders) - still wears 89

Sam Gagner (Oilers) - still wears 89

Alexander Mogilny (Sabres/Vancouver/NJ/Toronto) - drafted in 1989 with the 89th pick...so he chose 89 as his number

Darren Turcotte (NYR/Hartford/WInnipeg/SJ/Nashville) - now retired

Answer 4

I know Sam Gagner from the Edmonton Oilers wears 89 currently.

Answer 5

Please don't expect me to do this research at 2:17am on a school night. I do know that Alexander Mogilny wore it as he had defected from Russia in 1989.

There are probably others but he's the only one I can think of at this time.

Answer 6

Alexander Mogilny wore #89 and he played for the Buffalo Sabres as a rookie, the Vancouver Canucks, the New Jersey Devils and Toronto Maple Leafs. He retired a while ago.

Along with him there's also Sam Gagner, the rookie that plays for Edmonton. He's a great guy I sort of know him and Steve Mason and them.

As for other players with the #89, I suppose Google might help you out. ;)
