If Cyclone Taylor was playing today he'd be called "Fred Taylor" and his nickname would be "Tays". Newsy Lalonde would be called "Ed Lalonde" and his nickname would be either "Lalsy" or "Edsy".
Has anyone had a good nickname since Ken Linseman?

Pat Verbeek was "The Little Ball of Hate", that was a pretty good one. The best ones IMO are "The Dipsy Doodle Dandy from Delisle" and "The Chicoutimi Cucumber".
