Jersey auction question

[Pace]

Btw, I noticed that the styling on these jerseys was very different from both the home and away jerseys. Are these one of a kind in styling, or were they made to look like old Cornell jerseys?

You can just go to the Teagle issue room yourself and buy one there in person.  That's what I did.  I'm guessing they're open normal business hours (M-F 9-5).[/q]

You're much better off doing it in person.  The guy is very slow to respond to emails.

If you want a Cornell hockey jersey cheap (relatively) they're $80 at

http://www.homegrownsportinggoods.com/cobigredreko.html

Note the claim that the "Cornell University Big Red Hockey Jersey by Koronis is an exact replica of the school's on ice jersey!" does not specify what decade's jerseys they're exact replicas of. 1980s maybe? The arched "Cornell" across the front is smaller than what I believe is on Cornell jerseys. If so, why not spend the extra $20 (which goes to Cornell) and get the real thing at Teagle.

I agree.  If you can, get the genuine worn article.  There's nothing quite like putting on a jersey that you know has seen real action on the ice.  I have Chris Abbott's red away jersey from the 2002-2003 season.  It has black scuff marks on the front and little tears/holes that have been sewn up.  It's awesome.

Hi All
I'm new to this forum so be gentle. my name is peter shier and i played at Cornell from 74-78. I was lucky enough to have my name on a jersey last week (#5) to be auctioned off this weekend. Unfortunately, i missed the fact that the auction was closing Sat aft and missed the opportunity to buy my jersey. Dang.
Wondering, if in your travels, you get wind of the person who bought #5, somehow i could connect with him/her and have a word. Maybe we can work something out.  I was going to buy it for one of my kids as a keepsake.
If nothing happens so be it, but it would be a cool thing to have for sure...
Many thanks-- have to say, trying to keep up with the Big Red is a lot easier with a site like this....keep it going, you guys continue to be the best sports fans on the planet!
Keep your stick on the ice....

Have to add my two cents to Peter Shier:  I started following Cornell hockey in about 1974, at age 12.  I learned about slap shots from watching you, and I've never seen any Cornell player better at them since -- as I mentioned to my husband the other day when we saw your name on that jersey.  You helped me develop a lifelong passion for CU hockey, and I'm grateful!  I wish you all the best.

Come to think of it, I may still have your autograph somewhere in my basement.    

I totally agree this site is wonderful for those of us in the Cornell hockey diaspora.  Thanks again, Age.

He got back to me quickly enough. Particularly if you are coming to Ithaca from out of town like I was, I'd say send an email (though I no longer have the address). Mr. Issue Room (someone please save me and give his name) is great about sending a list of available jerseys by number and h/a and setting aside the jersey you request.

wow--- thank you for your kind words....makes me feel old though!

bill reynolds is the teagle issue room guy, and he has been pretty helpful everytime we got a game-worn jersey

in addition, PSP Unlimited by Wegman's is pretty good with putting names on the back in a reasonable time.

Any chance you'd want to teach that slap shot to a couple of our current blue-liners?  Only kidding, but seriously, I'd like to see a few more screens set up in front for some blasts from the point.  Why not add another dimension to this seemingly potent offense?

[peterg]

Sometimes the memory plays tricks, but I can still picture John Stornik diving out of the way as Peter Shier wound up for a slapshot (I'm going to say 1978).  I don't think too many wanted to do much screening when Pete was firing from the point.

Wht a power play that was and boy did Cornell score goals that year.  I think there were five or six guys over 20 and we must have had a half a dozen games or more in double figures.
