Jinxing teams on the podcast?
Former NHL forward Stephan Lebeau joined the podcast in February, and we discussed his hockey career and the prospects of seeing the Montreal Canadiens win another Stanley Cup. In closing, we wished the Canadiens luck in the 2020-21 NHL season. At the time, they were 9-4-2 and were the second-place team in the division. Since the episode aired, they have won just once (losing six of seven, including five in a row) while dropping back-to-back games to the lowly Ottawa Senators. They have since fired their coach. What a turnaround… or did we jinx the Habs? (Similarly, when the Pittsburgh Steelers were 11-0, my guest Adrian Brijbassi talked about their chances of going undefeated. After that episode aired, Pittsburgh won only one game and was eliminated in the playoffs by…. Cleveland!! Ouch!)
