Prepare to be surprised! We'll meet a goaltender who, in a moment of youthful humor, chose the number 00, only to face equipment limitations and a league not quite ready for the double digits. This was during a time when the NHL was still adjusting to the idea of players wearing numbers higher than 9. We'll also explore the career of the lone player ever to wear the single zero, a journeyman forward whose story highlights the depth and diversity of the NHL.

Embark on a journey with us as we dig deep into the archives, dissect the rationale behind these unconventional jersey numbers, and scrutinize the careers of these players. Did they meet the expectations (or lack thereof) of such unconventional choices? Brace yourself for a fascinating expedition into the peculiar realm of NHL jersey history – the domain of the 'double zeroes'!
