Over at the Times, we have name changin’ fever. Cincinnati Bengal Chad Johnson has changed his name to Chad Ocho Cinco. It’s not the first time names have been changed, and it’s not the first time someone has changed their name to something stupid. In the spirit of being stupid, let’s look at 5 name changes that need to happen in the NHL.
1) Barry Melrose –> Barry Mullet. Nothing like a guy named after his most defining physical feature, and the best part is, he wouldn’t have to change any of his monogrammed towels.
2) Krys Kolanos –> Chris Kolanos. Please. Make this happen Krys. Chris. Your name bugs me.
3) Florida Panthers –> Winnipeg Jets. Ok, so not so much a name change. I want Winnipeg to have a team again though, so even if we don’t have hockey IN North Dakota, at least it’s really close.
4) Barry Trotz –> Barry Devito. I’m pretty sure that Barry Trotz and Danny Devito are related. They share the “absent neck” gene. Go back to your roots, Barry. Just change your name.
5) Kevin Schultz –> Melrose Luongo. I can’t imagine a name more fitting for him. I imagine this would make Kevin one of the happiest people on earth.
