Steve Yzerman 19
Jonathan Toews 19

[Diamond Joe]

Mine got started as a Colorado Avalanche fan. Only ever used them when I was a kid playing NHL 97,98,99 - etc. Sakic, naturally always the top scorer.

To this day he's my favourite player.

I guess I came up with the name while playing NHL 2006 in first year uni against a buddy and it just started to roll off the tongue eventually...so while everyone was calling him "Burnaby Joe" I was calling him Diamond Joe.

[jayz16]

Great idea and a fun thread!

Jayz16... Mine is a pretty simple story as well and has nothing to do with the more famous rapper. My initials are J and Z, so technically, I was JZ before Jay-Z was Jayz, if that makes sense!

Also, I know he's not the most beloved nor *ahem* talented of players, but I loved Darcy Tucker and used 16 as my hockey number whenever I'd play, so that explains the 16 following Jayz.

Avatar... I write *clears throat again* porn for a website called "Brazzers" and that was my very first scene that did quite well! Also happens to be my favorite scene, not to toot my horn, or maybe just a little .

I don't really like having a chick anymore, so Tucker or Gilmour will probably be back there soon lol.

[Briarpatch00]

My username is a random thought I had around 12 years ago when I first was coming up with an on-line handle. The 00 came after when I was logging onto a site and got to about Briarpatch5, got frustrated and now have kept the handle ever since

Avatar is who I was when playing road hockey...

[fungchen3]

The legend of fungchen3 goes something like this:

There was a Chinese restuarant in Philly called the House of Chen. Well one night back in like 1998, a buddy and I went there for some grub around 4 in the morning. We were hammered, pigging out on all kinds of food and started chatting with the waiter.

I forget what his real name was, but in a drunken stupor I renamed him Fung Chen. From that point on, every time we went there to eat, we called him Fung Chen. He was a neat dude who looked like an old, Asian version of Harry Potter.

Then, around 2001 or so, I started crank calling one of my co-workers at random times when I was plastered. I would leave him messages in a Chinese voice saying that my name was Fung Chen and I was sending the House of Chen ninjas after him. Rotfl.

From there I have used the Fung Chen character as my main character when I crank call random people. My eBay handle and emails are also fungchen3. I added the #3 because it is one of my favorite numbers, worn by my favorite athlete of all-time: Babe Ruth.

My avatar is Erik Karlsson. I have always been a big fan of the Swedes and Karlsson is one of my favorite new players in the league.

As in you write the scripts? That's something you don't see everyone doing, or at least admitting to it.

[hockeyrobot]

Great thread idea!!

Well mine is kind of combination of things. The robot jokes have been going on about me forever because people think my dad looks like Arnold. So there's that, plus I tend to be straight forward with my comments or emotions/can be monotone sometimes. And supposedly I run like a robot would, however that may be. Anyways, my nickname amongst a bunch of friends is now "robot".

At a recent birthday party of mine, a few of the guys made me stand up in front of everyone as they played a song they had made earlier about me being a robot using the T-Pain app. Probably won't be as funny since you have no references to compare to haha, but Ill post the link anyway.

haha I know I know, just lazy, gotta get around to making a new one...he'll be there and Im also changing Kovalchuk back to the Thrashers jersey, that will be the spark he needs..

[big_dl]

I'm 6'4 and for much of the last decade I've weighed in at around 3 bills, suffice to say I've been a big individual for most of my life, hence the big. DL are my initials, first and last. It also works as big deal, which nicely feeds my ego, and works really well on the few occasions I've played online poker.

Not sure what my avatar is, I think it's a manipulated of me trying to look somewhat psychotic. Whatever it is just be thankful it's no longer the pic of a man, I assume it's a man, bent over at the waist with his head up his own ass.

[jsender]

Great thread idea. jsender was a nickname and also a play on my name.

Friends would call me J (first name is Jordan). The sender part came back in highschool days after some crazy ex gf I had. Long story short, I "sent her" packing with style. The nick name came then as my last name starts with Sender. J-send'er packing.

As for the Avatar - Lilly Robbins, Miami Dolphin cheerleader which I had the pleasure of meeting once. Fell in love with her then and still love her now.
