It’s likely that No. 9 will be on the minds of more than a few Pittsburgh Penguins players tonight. It’ll literally be on their helmets, too.
The Penguins provided a great gesture on Wednesday, as they honored Pascal Dupuis’ career with a No. 9 decal on their skaters’ helmets:

Cool stuff, right?
Before you get too sad, here’s a little comic relief via Maxime Talbot:
Talbot on Dupuis: "He would say an inappropriate joke quietly and I'd repeat it out loud. He would make me look stupid. He's a funny guy."
