Devils picked a kid named Graeme Clarke. I think that's gotta be the most Canadian name I have ever heard.

Dale Hawerchuk

Dale Hawerchuk

More Ukrainian than Canadian

 

[SnowblindNYR]

More Ukrainian than Canadian

Lots of people with Ukrainian heritage in Canada and Clarke is British.

Yes, and?

 

[SnowblindNYR]

Yes, and?

So there's no basis to call it "more of a Ukrainian name". Is Clarke more of a British name?

Yes

 

[EpicDing]

Yes

By this logic, there's no such thing as an American or Canadian name, since they're countries of immigrants, barring natives.

I guess Robin Big Snake is the most Canadian name.

 

[KirkAlbuquerque]

Logan Couture is pretty Canadian

 

[Lindberg Cheese]

Yes, and?

Réal Canadian hockey names can have Ukrainian roots, judges say it counts.

Boone Jenner. Colton Orr.

Can’t be more Canadian.

Let’s do this by region:

Québec - Pierre-Luc Dubois (this one requires a hyphen)

GTA - Darryl Sittler (has to be a Darryl)

West - Jarome Iginla (gotta have a native name in there since there really aren’t such things as Canadian or American surnames unless they’re native)

Dirk Graham

 

[nyr2k2]

Link Gaetz. Quite the gentleman, as well.

 

[Miamipuck]

Well I said it in the other thread

Quebec you can also go Pierre-Luc Letourneau-Leblond.

You could also do First Nations players and have Ethan Bear, Jordin Tootoo, and Fred Sasakamoose. But I know that's not really what we're doing.

Lindy Ruff. Darcy Hordichuk. Terry Sawchuk. Lots of "chuks." Good old Tugger Ron Tugnutt. Dick Duff. Another one of our boys Colton Orr.

From Quebec, Denis Savard

For the "chuks" there's Dave Andreychuk and Clint Malarchuk

There is the one and only Peter Zezel

I'm offended you left Robin Big Snake out of this.
