Around SBN: Knicks Beat Lakers With Familiar Strategy

The Nucks Misconduct List of Canuck Nicknames

Like many other blogs around here, we have many nicknames for our precious Canuck players.  And occasionally, visitors who jump into our gamethread are wondering who we are talking about.  So, here is a guide to the nicknames we have so far.

*Kudos to the people at Raw Charge (the Tampa Bay Lightning blog here at SBNation) for inspiring me to do this by giving us a link to theirs :)

Star-divide

Here's what we've got right now.

 

#14 Alexandre Burrows : Mr. Everything, Bank, Burr

#22 Daniel Sedin : Dank

#33 Henrik Sedin : Hank

#17 Ryan Kesler : Keslord

#21 Mason Raymond : May Ray

#26 Mikael Samuelsson : Sammy, Son of Sam

#42 Kyle Wellwood : Pudge, Wellfed, Failwood, Chubby

#18 Steve Bernier : Hands of Stone, Death to Scoring Chances, Stank, Big Bear, Cinder-mitts

#38 Pavol Demitra : Demo

#37 Rick Rypien : Rypper

#24 Darcy Hordichuk : Blackout

#10 Ryan Johnson : RyJo, Balls

#15 Tanner Glass : Glass (needs a nickname!!)

#36 Jannik Hansen :The Great Dane, Jank

#6 Sami Salo :Fragile Fin, Finnish MacInnis, Redshirt

#2 Kevin Bieksa : Juice

#3 Willie Mitchell : Big Stick Willie

#5 Christian Ehrhoff : Blasthoff, The Hoff, Orrhoff

#23 Alexander Edler : E-Money

#55 Shane O'Brien : SOB (look at his initials, they're perfect!!)

#34 Brad Lukowich : Luko

#29 Aaron Rome : Roamer

#44 Nolan Baumgartner : Baumer

#1 Roberto Luongo : LUUUU, Luie, Bobby Lou, LuonGod

#30 Andrew Raycroft : Rayzor, Facepalm, Raysoft

 

Now, I do realize that I probably don't have all the nicknames listed here, and that we don't seem to have nicknames for certain players, so if the rest of you add the other nicknames to the comments section, I will add them to the post.  Also, as we go along and create more nicknames, I can always add even more to the post.

I hope this helps everyone :)

Hansen

One nickname I heard for Hansen and liked, though it never caught on, was “the Sniping Viking.”

Great list! I think either Sean or Mike used Facepalm for Raycroft. But maybe that’s been dropped seeing as he’s been decent?

by nucksandpucks on Feb 9, 2010 9:37 PM PST reply actions  

I think a lot of people from PPP call him Facepalm as well. Another one could be Raysoft.

Rome is Roamer, as he roams the blue line, in search of power forwards and errant pucks.

My suggestion for Salo is “Silk”, seeing as he’s as fragile as said oriental fabric.

-Some around here are partial to “Finnish MacInnis” for Salo.
-I still like “Jank” for Hansen. (I’m in favour of basically everyone getting an -ank. Glass=Tank, for instance.)
-Ehrhoff sometimes gets the Orrhoff treatment.

by Passive Voice on Feb 9, 2010 11:31 PM PST reply actions  

So…salo would be ‘Sank’? Bieksa would be ‘Kank’? Of course bernier works well…he’d be ‘Stank’…

Hrmm, actually I like that alot for bernier…stank really works…

Wellwood = Wank?

Yeah, thats right. I could do this all day…

Adding to the list of Bernier nicknames

My friends and I like to refer to him as Cinder-mitts.

down here in sharks country ehrhoff was known as errorhoff. doesn’t fit very well anymore however.

also, i’ve always loved the irony of calling your johnson “balls”.

by bitterguy on Feb 10, 2010 10:08 AM PST reply actions  

Salo’s should be named GlassCannon
Rome should be named Centurion
Baumgartner should be named Bummer (one of my friends actually called him BUMgartner when he first read the name)

My 2 cents =p

by Laharl on Feb 10, 2010 10:13 AM PST reply actions  

Haha ‘Bum Gardener’ – I like it

Nah man, he’s the Bomber. Or maybe I just mishear people saying Baumer.

So don't get violent and don't get caught with your head down, the night she stole the moon.

by thelastjohnny on Feb 10, 2010 1:11 PM PST up reply actions  

Salo – China Doll, TGM (The Glass Menagerie), RedShirt (you know, the crew member on star trek who always dies?) I like Lahari’s Glass Cannon too, although I think Porcelain Cannon implies value with the fragility…
Rome I thought was Roamer, but I call him Ryder cuz he’s a good saskatchewan boy.
Baumgartner is just not headline worthy enough to have a nickname.

by GAHHHHH! on Feb 10, 2010 10:26 AM PST reply actions  

Redshirt’s a good one, because that’s also what it’s called in college sports when you have a bad injury and sit out the year to preserve eligibility.

I thought I’d heard wellwood referred to as Peanut Butter and Welly works very well when he scores PEANUT BUTTER WELLY TIME!!

Well Salo was always “Glass”. Then we acquired Glass and everything went to hell. We could probably call Tanner “Bulletproof Glass” and Sami “Pulled Ass”.

I still miss the peseason setup of Pope , Rome and Parrish. The Fear of God line.

i did originally have that note about calling salo “glass” up there, but now i removed it because everyone else was coming up with names to replace it.
