Mario Lemieux (literally translates to - The Best)
Patrick Roy (translates to - The King)
Rocket Richard (translates to 5 cups in a row)

It's hard to argue with a guy named Nail though. Guarantee the first time he as a big hit every headline is "Tough as Nail"

I always say "Tommy Wingels'" sounds like a burger chain/restaurant. So non-threatening. Good player though!

Did I miss Mariusz Czerkowski? Loved that.
