Bertuzzi. Mainly cos the guy rocks. (Canucks) - Go Canucks Go.
Osgood. Really good to say in a long drawn out way to be offensive. (St Louis Blues)

Miroslav Satan is really good. I also like John Madden and Patrik Elias. All devils :)



My personal fav. is Patrik Elias, if you know how to pronounce it then you know why I like it.

Marian Gaborik (where I'm from Marian is a woman's name)
Vyacheslav Kozlov (don't cheat by calling him Slava)

Stanislav Neckar (pronounced nets-cash). There are a few of these "kar" names in the NHL pronounced "cash".

Satan is good but he is on the Buffalo Sabres.

Most Slovaks are good.

Peter Bondra is my all-time favorite. ;) Richard Zednik, before the Caps traded him, was 2nd on my short list. And as an FYI, Marian Gaborik idolized Bondra as a kid growing up and says he models his play after Bonzai. I love them Slovaks.

LOL check again. :D

dudes, he DID play for the devils at one point. Proves that even Satan can get thrown out of HELL!

If he did, it would be in the NHL stats. They list all the teams a player has been on, no matter where or how long they were traded for.
