Leafs have a guy at dev camp named gunnarwolfe Fontaine. There was a draftee last month named hunter skinner, but gunnarwolfe Fontaine is in a league of it's own.

Gunnarwolfe Fontaine sounds like a Mighty Ducks movie character. Skilled but arrogant, just moved here from Iceland. He's a total prick to his teammates but we find out he's had a rough time since the divorce- he opens up, his teammates rally around him, and he makes the game winning assist in overtime to end the movie. He coulda shot, but not with his new found knowledge of trusting others!

Off the top of my head, Henrik or Evgeni(y).

I remember reading about ~5 years ago, there were around 7 total Henriks in the history of NHL, and all of them at that point were active players.

For Russians you are off. Alexander and Alexei are completely different names. We can live with North Americans making Alexes out of all of them, but it's just not the same as Bob and Robert.

 

[Atas2000]

Bob probably wins it. And Sergei Bobrovskiy is a charm being a Sergei nicknamed Bob.
