I just picked up another game-worn jersey from Bill Reynolds a few days ago, Red #26, assuming it was Topher's.

It is a men's CCM jersey (size 56), but the CCM logo is on the left shoulder, which according to this post means it came from the 03-04 season.  However, Topher was not yet at Cornell, and according to the rosters, there was no #26 that year.  So whose jersey is this?  It obviously belonged to someone since there are puck-marks, but I can't make out the imprint of the removed nameplate very well (which I fortunately could on my Carefoot jersey)...any thoughts?

I think Chris is right.  It could be Krahn's 2002-03 jersey, but if he never dressed for a single game that season, then the presence of the marks is strange.  I guess it could be a 2001-02 jersey, but I don't know how it would differ from 2002-03 and 2003-04, if it differs at all.
Is next year here yet?

I think in 04-05 the new red jerseys didn't come in until later in the season, and the team wore the previous year's red jerseys for a while.  So, in the Fall of 04 Topher could have been wearing Krahn's jersey from the previous year.

Well, Rich is right, since here's Topher's red jersey from his freshman year, 2004-05, with the CCM squarely in the middle of the chest.  No idea who had 26 the year before.

You know, it must be some sort of optical illusion that Topher looks so small when he's on the ice.  Little Killer tells me she's 5'9".

Pretty sure Topher's about my height, and I'm 5'5. Meet the Big Red confirms this and says he's 5'6. Looks like it's the stadium seating in that pic?

I'm pretty sure that (a) Killer was joking and (b) Killer took the picture.

Indeed, (a) I was and (b) I did.  It was at Lynah after the 3-1 victory over Dartmouth last February.  Topher had just signed the jersey for Somers and he was standing one row above her when I took the shot.  When they were on the same level, it was damn near reversed.

The only thing about the FAQ is that the jersey's are $125 from the Teagle Issue room, not $100

I won't say anything, Killer.   ;-)

Thanks again for the Dartmouth tickets.  It was fun even if the game itself wasn't so great.
