Someone thought calling Latendresse ' War Amps' was a good idea...they said it was because he had no hands.

Not really hockey, but Micheal "Pinball" Clemons is pretty lame...



Acutally any sport would be cool. I remember when Pinball first came in the CFL, yea I'm that old, and they started calling him that cuz he was bouncing around all the bigger players like a pinball in a pinball machine. laugh.gif

Haven't seen Modere Fernand "Mud" Bruneteau mentioned so far.

Sure he scored the goal in the longest OT ever, but I still don't want to know how he got that nickname.



Bruneteau.......basically "brown water" a la francais

Mats "Weed" Sundin.........I know why, does anyone else

Georges Vezina - "Chicoutimi Cucumber"



That nickname is six different ways of awesome. Puppa Scuppa and Red Light are hilariously great.

Lafleur (or La fleur) means "The Flower" in French. Not a bad nickname by any means.

yeah..I'm sure you'd love to walk around with people callin you Puppa Scoopa.

We seem to have had a few minor differences lately seventieslord...but they've been based on opinion, not fact.


Puppa Scoopa is the funniest nickname I've ever heard. I wouldn't call it bad.

What's wrong with "Moose"? It's one of the best nicknames around and very fitting for Vasko.

dreak and modgod.... those are all good nicknames, not bad ones.

Here's a bad one: How about hall of famer Fred "Steamer" Whitcorft? That's as bad as it gets.
