Not sure if this has been mentioned, but after the warmups on Thursday, Pegararo was NOT the last player off the ice.  A UNH player (not sure who) kept on sticking around, and Pegararo finally just headed into the locker room.

I know, it's all just superstition, but just thought I would note that.

Well I bet he remembers that moment, and even though it IS just superstition, I wouldn't be surprised if, next season, he makes sure he is ALWAYS the last to leave the ice...no rock/paper/scissors either :-}

Damnit, that and the new tube of toothpaste I opened up Thursday morning musta blown our streak ;-). I mean each alone doesn't seem significant, but when you put the two together...  ::nut::

I got a hair cut on Wed for the first time since the loss to Colgate. I actually debated not getting it cut for superstitious reasons. Guess I should have heeded those thoughts.

Now, now, we all know my Mardi Gras beads are to blame for Thursday's loss.  ::nut::

Actually, I washed both my jerseys before the game.  That's what did us in.

Section A

Hmm, I played both national anthems on my computer before the game (yes, I actually do that), and we STILL lost. How can that be?!

Well, I'm glad everyone else has a hand in this - I thought we lost because I didn't wear my Red Sox hat that I'd been wearing since Albany...

Never washing my jersey again.  Removed the cloud of good luck nastiness....

I think the reason why we always have the same person come in last is so Schafer knows when everybody is in the locker room. While Pegoraro may personally prefer to be the final person off the ice, I don't believe that's the point.

RedAR

I disagree.  If it was just for the sake of Schafer knowing if the entire team was in the locker room, then Pegararo would only need to be the last Cornell player off the ice.  On many occasions, he stuck around on the ice, waiting for all the opposing players to get off the ice before he would.

Unless, of course, Schafer needs to know that all the opposing players are in their locker room as well.

jd212

That was my point. He may have a personal preference to be the last person on/off the ice. That is why he opted to be the last Cornell player off the ice.

I have to testify....

I've seen us play UNH four times.

1979 Regular Season
2002 NC$$ regionals
2003 NC$$ Semis

You look up the scores.  It's not pretty.   ::help::

In addition, JTW and I forgot to listen to tack 64 of Live at Lynah on our way to Buffalo, as I have on my way to every game this season.  (The losses to Maine and Dartmouth were the only other games for which I did not do so.)  I apologize.
