Some, of course, are more so than ethere. Silly, eh? That's what I keep telling myself, and this one. man dialogue has been .going on for the 22 seasons that I've been in the National Hockey League, I hate to admit it, but I still haven't convinced myself. In my early years in the league, superstition bothered me. I'd actually worry about things. Like if things were going good, I'd try to keep eating the same foods and doing the same things day after day. It didn't quite get to the point where I'd keep wearing the same clothes, but almost. Happily, I'm not quite that bad now, But I still have my quirks. If things are going good, I still like to stick to the same foods day after day. Over the years, superstition has provided numerous good laughs for the members of our team, I remember a couple of seasons back we were playing a Saturday night game in To. ronto and our manager—coach, Sid Abel, was wearing his lucky suit. The Leafs, I recall, were leading by one goal going into the final minute of play when Paul Henderson scored for us to gain a tie, When Henderson scored for us to gain a tie. Sid leaped up to shout in his excitement and tore the knee completely out of his lucky suit. I'm sure he was convinced We would never get another joint on the road that season, We cud, ;Bob Goldhane you will re. second trip to our town. How. elter, the hoYS will not be etrangere. During the Christ. mas holida,ye they entertained our boys in their homes for three days. The Dearborn Bantams spon. sored ley the St. Sebastian Dad's Club have attended the Past member, was an All-Star defenceman with the Red Wings during the 19500 s, He was also, I believe, one of the most super. stitious hockey playere ever to lace on a skate, It was even worse during the playoffs. ti If you roomed with Bob during the playoffs, he'd make you count the coins in your pocket and if they added up to 13,. well, you had to throw one away. I remember, too, that he had a lucky suit. It was an old, tweed job and I'm sure it dated hack to Year One. Any. way, we were in Boston and he had the suit, All the fellows on the team chipped in and bought a new suit after making sure we had Bob's correct size. Then while we wereoutpractic. ing, a couple of the fellows went into the ciressingroom and snipped the seams on Goldham's lucky suit — the seams on the pants and coat. Bob returned to the dressing room and started to put on the pants. Of course, the expected happened, It came apart at the seams. Between "cuss" words, he tried to tape it together with surgical tape, Then he started to put on the coat and one sleeve fell off. The whole room collapsed in laughter. Goldham was fuming. Then we presented him with the new suit and it fitted perfectly. But he still had the last word. Maybe Bob was surprised, but he was just as talented without his lucky suit as he was with it. "I'm too mad to thank you now," he said as he left the room, "I'll do. it when I Cool off„” eight years and over the yearS their hpelcpy hee improved greatlY.
