Red Wings rookie Johan Franzen plays like a Mule

November 1, 2005

An unknown entering camp, he impresses with work ethic

By John Niyo / The Detroit News

DETROIT -- When the captain speaks, everyone listens.

So earlier this fall, when Steve Yzerman saddled rookie forward Johan Franzen with his own, hand-picked nickname, it stuck. Like it or not, Franzen, a 25-year-old Swede, henceforth would be known simply as "The Mule."

"Yeah, that's my new name," said Franzen, a burly, 6-foot-2, 210-pounder, with a laugh. "I know what it means, but I'm not sure what to do with it. ... It's easy to remember, at least."

"Yzerman nicknamed him 'The Mule,' and that's what he is: a big, strong guy who just goes over the top of you," coach Mike Babcock said.

Mule sounds too weird, as far as I'm concerned, let Lilja be mule even if he isn't. Franzenstein sounds way too cool.

Looks like people start naming all the players after halloween and horror stuff...

Count Datsyukula already named, sound like true horror, what next: Lilja vs Mowers, Jason-X (Woolley), Draper goes to Manhattan? Give Kane Hodder some skates and a hockey stick. laugh.gif
