LUCKY LU
Date: March 10, 2019
Roberto Luongo got into the St. Patrick’s Day spirit at BB&T Center (now Amerant Bank Arena) in this holiday-themed warm-up jersey. Over 19 NHL seasons, opponents regularly tested their luck and lost. Off the ice, Luongo sometimes tested his luck at cards as well. In 2012, he appeared on ESPN’s World Series of Poker, finishing 634th in a competition of over 6,000 participants and cashing out with a pot of $19,227. Not bad!
