Referee James Ions has requested to change his jersey number.
๐ฌ "47 is Adamโs legacy. No longer wearing the number felt the right way to show respect on behalf of all the officials."
Game officials will join players at centre ice for this weekend's pre-game tributes.
This weekend, we come together to remember and honour Adam Johnson.
At all games this weekend, we invite you to join us in observing a minuteโs silence, followed by a minuteโs applause, in memory of Adam.
There's one team that deserves an extra applause more than anyone else for finishing the season, let alone staying in the playoff race until the final game.
