Nickname for Palat-Johnson-Kucherov: TKO or Triplets or other?

[BOLTMAN]

First time poll try.

Would you like to see TKO or Triplets or some other name
when referring to palat, Johnson and Kucherov.

For me, its hands down TKO and I'm a little bummed when I hear The Chief say Triplets.

Its too late I guess but I am curious.

Also who thought of TKO

I went for the "Other" option.

They should be called the Squall Line.

 

[Brie]

I’m thinking of them as the TKO line.

Well, I keep seeing “The KnockOut” – line because you know, once you’ve faced them it’s kind of ‘game over’ for the other team when they have down their thing.

 

[DFC]

TKO or Sophomores.

Triplets makes no sense.

 

[JS91]

TKO all the way.

 

[HoseEmDown]

This line is really good, NOT.

 

[Kusic]

TKO for me.

 

[zeykshade]

TKO makes no sense to me. Tyler (first name), Kucherov (surname), Ondrej(first name).

Coach Cooper called em Triplets because they all think the same as if they were hatched from the same womb. I'll stick with Triplets.

TKO in boxing means "Technical Knockout", like when a guy gets sat down 3 times in a round.

[AlphaCatalyst]

I still personally call them..

The Triforce line.

Tyler Johnson = Courage
Nikita Kutcherov = Power
Ondrej Palat = Wisdom

 

[ThunderAlleyNomad]

TKO

But I still liked Legion of Zoom

 

[Sky04]

TKO baby.

 

[CarpeNoctem]

TKO for sure. Once you've been tko'ed, you don't get back up.

Well when they do get rolling teams don't usually get back up.

wow not bad.

Hats off to him and let The Chief know how we feel about using TKO.

Sky04 used white text to hide that tidbit.

 

[HoseEmDown]

TKO just doesn't make sense to me, it's the letters of two first names and one last name, that's not consistent. It needs to be more N'SYNC like, RAJ is the only acceptable answer.

 

[Coopers Gum]

I like TKO, but the only knock is that it uses two first names and a last name unfortunately. Triplets is just stupid to me. Legion of Zoom is aight, but they aren't that fast to be deemed it.

I never took credit for it

Anything but Triplets.

 

[Felonious Python]

TKO or Sophomores.

Triplets makes no sense.

what happens if they last through the season?

This line is really good, NOT.

The 90's called, and they want their joke back.

I still personally call them..

The Triforce line.

Tyler Johnson = Courage
Nikita Kutcherov = Power
Ondrej Palat = Wisdom

never gonna happen. Paul Kennedy is never going to call a line the Triforce Line. (not that he's necessarily the taste maker, but he's the type of guy you have to have your line name appeal to for adoption)

I'm not a fan of either, but how about a compromise.
the TKOlets

 

[chasespace]

Momma said knock you out

TKO

But I still liked Legion of Zoom

That was mine!

 

[ThunderAlleyNomad]

That was mine!

Knew I tried to steal it from somebody on here

 

[DFC]

what happens if they last through the season?

Sooner or later they'd be called "The Graduates."

 

[Filthy Mitts]

I hate nicknames, I just want hockey fans to get a chance to see this treat that we get a chance to watch every time they play.

I'd love to see every one of them get some individual recognition for how damned well they're playing night in and night out.
