Corey Crawford

by Fromtheillstate on May 19, 2011 3:13 AM CDT

So I was thinking that Crawford needs a real nickname. A goalie should have a nickname that is not in the regular format of last name being shortened or + y, ie, er, ect... At least that's how I feel. Craw or Crow is not cutting it for me. So I got to thinking and came up with "Scrooge".

My thoughts were...Stingy (on goals) and saves a lot. Different, but I think it is pretty good.

What does everyone think?

but doesn't Scrooge..

… end up giving it all away? Still, i’ve got no better ideas so I’ll “like”.. I guess my suggestion of “Corey Adamantine Wall With The Cold Dead Eyes Of A Souless Killer Crawford” doesn’t really trip off the tongue!

Very true.

Didn’t think of the actual story of Ebanezer.

Not sure yet

Crawford was great this year. But this honestly came out of nowhere. The guy never showed a hint of this in all the times I have watched him in Rockford. If he plays close to what he did last year than its a good deal. I have to give him the benefit of the doubt now, but I think there is a small chance he played way over his head last year.
