IamAmerica 10-10-2005, 10:31 PM Nicknames are fun... We need to start assigning nicknames for our boys.Those whom we don't have solid nicknames for. Here is a partial list of the names that have stuck. There may be some already in use, that I am not privy to.
Miller = Miller time
Campbell = Soupy
Kalinin= Tree (Tri)
Connolly= Timmah
Gaustad= Goose
Dumont= JP ( decent, even tho it is his name)
Peters= Scratch
Numminen= Kramer

Connolly= Timmah
Gaustad= Goose
Dumont= JP ( decent, even tho it is his name)You forgot "Andro" Peters,
"Rosey" Grier, Chris "The little fat kid from that Trumbull Connecticut team in the little league world series" Drury, and "Pressbox" Noronen. :dunno:
Chainshot 10-10-2005, 10:39 PM NO, we don't!

The worst has to been Daniel "Pailliesie" Paille. That's a Cunneyworth Special, as is Millsy.
JOHNBOY 10-10-2005, 10:39 PM pyatt = pylon or please trade this a-hole
Chainshot 10-10-2005, 10:40 PM You forgot "Andro" Peters,
Soon to be know as by his new name.... Scratch.
Chainshot 10-10-2005, 10:41 PM pyatt = pylon or please trade this a-hole
I'm sensing some... uh... venom, Johnboy. The kid had another good game taking the body and going to the net. What's wrong with that?

hahaha
how about for roy; roysie or paetsch patshie...
:biglaugh:
pyatt = pylon or please trade this a-hole
As long as he rides shotgun to Goose I like what he now brings to the table.
JOHNBOY 10-10-2005, 10:43 PM I'm sensing some... uh... venom, Johnboy. The kid had another good game taking the body and going to the net. What's wrong with that?
I dunno, i have no real reason, its like him or Cabmpell slapped my mom or somehting..I just dont like either fo them. I am finnally coming around to Soupy though...
Slangston 10-10-2005, 10:44 PM I'd like to come up with a nasty nickname for the OLN network play-by-play crew but I'm not witty enough. Reading their comments from the game at other Sabre fansite forums pisses me off royally.

Gotta love a soup can that is the 7th dman dressed....yikes :help:

Soupcan? Ugh. I'd rather see them try to get Jillson's game in order (or deal him) than see more of the Soup 'n' Sandwich act.
As long as he rides shotgun to Goose I like what he now brings to the table.
Ditto. He's a follower and it seems Gaustad brings it out more than anyone else he's been paired with. Now to only get Mair (or Thorbs --shameless plug for the rest of the thread) out there with 'em to really start rattling the boards.
imyourhuckleberry 10-10-2005, 10:48 PM Not really a nickname, but I can see after scoring the game winner in OT Headline on TBN sports page "HELLO NUMMINEN!" ala Seinfeld
Hobey Baker 10-10-2005, 10:49 PM I'm sensing some... uh... venom, Johnboy. The kid had another good game taking the body and going to the net. What's wrong with that?He has played OK, but I still feel he's expendable at this point. Insert a healthy Mair, and package Pyatt up with Biron (we can give this package the nickname "Boy Band") to see if we can get another defenseman in here. Why not? Thorburn and/or Paille will be ready shortly.

Thorburn and Goose together would be nice.
Hobey Baker 10-10-2005, 10:52 PM Soon to be know as by his new name.... Scratch.Chain, don't make me build a case for keeping Peters around.

Kramer is definitly one of my idols :biglaugh: :biglaugh: :biglaugh:
IamAmerica 10-10-2005, 10:56 PM Kramer is definitly one of my idols :biglaugh: :biglaugh: :biglaugh:
Heh. So maybe we should name Numminen Kramer. lol
Chainshot 10-10-2005, 10:56 PM Chain, don't make me build a case for keeping Peters around.
You'll need some lumber. ;)
I think he stays around, I just don't see him getting much icetime until after the Sabres get pushed around by someone.
JOHNBOY 10-10-2005, 10:59 PM Heh. So maybe we should name Numminen Kramer. lol
yes! i love that idea :biglaugh:

yes! i love that idea :biglaugh:
You got it ! :biglaugh:
JOHNBOY 10-10-2005, 11:11 PM You got it ! :biglaugh:
YES! :biglaugh: :eek: :bow: :yo:
Hobey Baker 10-10-2005, 11:14 PM You'll need some lumber. ;)
I think he stays around, I just don't see him getting much icetime until after the Sabres get pushed around by someone.Yeah, but then it's too late. His skating is actually an asset, and I keep remembering his play in camp with Mancari and Hunter. I was actually thinking it was passable. Even though he makes mistakes every now and then, I say you dress him for those division games (and maybe more if he looks good), roll him out once a period, and maybe even plop him in front of the cage on the PP and let the 4 perimeter guys set it up. It was nice to see Gaustad get rewarded with some PP time tonight, maybe employ Andro the same way from time to time. It's not like he's McMorrow out there. :)
lecherous 10-10-2005, 11:21 PM Is it just me, or is Numminnen really weird looking?
Slangston 10-10-2005, 11:25 PM Is it just me, or is Numminnen really weird looking?
It's not just you. Makes you wonder how he was voted the "Sexiest Man" from Finland.
Hobey Baker 10-10-2005, 11:27 PM It's not just you. Makes you wonder how he was voted the "Sexiest Man" from Finland.He looks like Petr Svoboda after a three day bender. Nonstop booze and smokes.

I can't take "Sexiest Men" lists very seriously.
Ever since Mike Ricci was voted the Sexiest man in Denver.
cybresabre 10-11-2005, 12:12 AM the OLN special-- Paul "Mark" Gaustad
that's 17% of the Apostles right there.
wow. epiphany:
Mark-Paul Gosselaar. he is sooooo Zack Morris.
I nominate Thomas Vanek with the nickname "TV Star"
uh....im tired
TehDoak 10-11-2005, 08:53 AM I nominate Thomas Vanek with the nickname "TV Star"
uh....im tired
Thomas will have to earn this one eventually, but I given his NCAA history, Thomas "Big Goal" Vanek has a nice ring to it...
signalIInoise 10-11-2005, 09:17 AM Watching him play, so far the one thing that I keep saying is Thomas "Holy ****" Vanek.
