The Soshnikov

"Soupy Soshnikov", not the ring of Soupy Sales (remember him)

No. Stop.

Hey, how about we call Hyman 1-877-Kars4Kids because he wrote a couple of books for kids?

He already has a nickname. He's the Electric Jefferson. For reasons.

Seriously this guy is the greatest. Nice that he has another translator on the team too now.

Guys, I'm still trying to figure out which Leaf would be Tully Blanchard.  Slow down.

I would have preferred that Valiev not correct him.

Well, regardless, Soup is Andrew Campbell's nickname, not Soshnikov's.

I got that, just wanted to bring up Soupy Sales (if you don't remember him you were born after 1960 or so)

I'm old enough to know the name, but also young enough not to be able to attach much to it other than knowing that he was a TV personality.

It just struck me the perfect title for Soshnikov is the title of this thread; The Shoshnikov

My only memory of him is from Match Game 76. And what a creative name that was.

As pronounced by Sean Connery, clearly.

My vote is for Triky Niky.  Your welcome.

 

[McGarnagle]

I am sticking with "Saucenikov" from the GDT.

Lock thread.

No, in my heed I can hear Sir Sean say "The Shoshnikov", that works for me just fine, even if it is in reference to him saying to Nicolas Cage; "Hand me The Soshnikov I've got some people to kill".

Boom.  Settled.

This is further evidence that hockey players indeed make up the most thoughtful and clever nicknames for each other.

I wonder which bibliophile on the team came up with that one?

I do say it is better than being named after a rifle that has killed more people than any other single instrument.

Probably Bozie.
