Chris Pronger’s No. 44 will hang from the rafters of the Enterprise Center at some point next season.
On Saturday, the Blues announced that the team will retire the number of the former defenceman that mastered his craft in St. Louis. He will be the eighth player to have their number retired by the franchise.
The formal date for the number raising has not been set, but it will be during one of the 41 home games during the 2020-21 regular season.
Pronger was a dominant force during his 18-year career in the NHL and now he’s getting recognition from the franchise that he spent the majority of that time with.
