What are some awesome player names in hockey?

[Eple]

Marco Scandella, Mario Scalzo, Zach Parise, Alexander Radulov and Pekka Rautakallio. The coolest by far however is Robin Big Snake. Of any athletes, dutch soccer player Klaas Jan Huntelaar is pretty badass too

Karel Rachunek
Karlis Skrastins
Ruslan Salei
Pavel Demitra
Jozef Vasicek

Martin St. Louis

Derek Boogaard, Cam Janssen, and Trevor Gillies are not only great hockey names in my opinion, but more specifically GREAT names for enforcers.

Because of the season 2, I always immediately think of The Wire when someone here mentions Ziggy Pallfy.
