So you like Italian last names huh?

3 or 4 syllables usually does make for a cool name.

Cal Clutterbuck
Nikita Nikitin
Theoren Fleury
Manny Malhotra
Kris Letang

And pretty much every Finnish player now and ever... Teemu Selanne,
Mikko Koivu, Tuukka Rask, Pekka Rinne, etc. etc. etc. Sometimes I read over Wikipedia's list of Finnish ice hockey players just to enjoy how awesome Finnish names sound.

Ruotsalainen actually means swedish in finnish, oh the irony...


Otherwise i´d say Cal Clutterbuck for the hillbillyness and Ryan Reaves for sounding like a name from Mortal Kombat

My all time favorite NHL player name.

Owen Nolan. I've never heard a name with a better ring to it.
