Eichel Beach: Far away in time.

I know it's out of fashion
And a trifle uncool
But I can't help it
I'm a romantic fool
It's a habit of mine
To watch the sun go down
On Eichel Beach
I watch the sun go down

And it is very prominent when you sound out his name.

Are we sure we want that on the team?

Now that I think about it, we really need to get rid of Monahan too.

"Mono"

Hmmmmmmm.
should we call him Wechel or Uschel?

Just this week I learned that Einhorn is Rachael from Blade Runner. Never knew that.

Eichel rhymes with Reichel, as in former Flame Robert Reichel.

Eichel rhymes with Michael, as in current Flames Michael Stone and Mikael Backlund.

This can't be mere coincidence. It is destined that Eichel becomes a Flame.

I brought this to my superiors and they can confirm, the logic is sound.

Jack rhymes with crack.

It’s a sign that I should go smoke some rock.

Either that, or we will soon draft a stud prospect named Michael Eichelreichel.

Did you know that Crosby’s thighs are so thick he needs to get custom pants made so that it doesn’t look like he’s wearing JNCO Jeans from the knee down?


This is weird. Is it an American thing? I work with a lot of people that go by a different name than given

There’s a Jason (given name David), Greg (Arthur), Robert (John) and others.

What’s up with that?

Jack is somehow short for John. Kennedy went by Jack.

Thanks, I knew I was onto something big. I think I will call this phenomenon the "Reichel Michael Eichel cycle".

Was Eichel named after J.R. Ewing?

As a kid in Calgary growing up, I always bought my skates at a store called Bow Ceichel and Sports. It was in Bowness. I liked that store. I also got a really cool mountain bike there. It was green. That was in '89 when it was a good year to live in Calgary.

Another little known fact is the Calgary Flames logo is actually the letter C but just looks like it's on fire.
