redwingsandspartans 0 Report post Posted May 20, 2009 not sure but I don't think so. I've seen him play at the high school and college levels growing up in michigan and going to michigan state and i've never heard him being referred to by a nickname. :rockstar: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Theophany 110 Report post Posted May 20, 2009 Darth Kader??? That's my favorite, personally. I also enjoy Abdelgator, especially after seeing a photoshop someone put up in one of the photoshop threads (I think it was Anaheim). I've been sorely tempted to photoshop Darth Vader's head on Abby's body, maybe with a lightsaber instead of a hockey stick (or a lightsaber hockey stick!).

Probie 7 Report post Posted May 20, 2009 (edited) my dad was drunk calling him "the alligator" tonight....sorry if this has been posted before His nickname should be "gator". Yes he looks like an aligator, I totally think the same way. Alligator is too long a nickname. Gator is shorter plus it rymes with the last part of his name "Kader". Its been my nickname of choice for him for a while. Plus its how he plays too, hes viscious. Lets all call him that from now on. If enough people from here keep saying it, then it will spread, and sometime sooner rather then later you'll here on tv that its his new nickname. It might sound far fetched but things spread quickly!! Edited May 20, 2009 by Probie Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
55fan 5,133 Report post Posted May 20, 2009 I think it's "that one guy that played for a college or something in Michigan or somewhere and then got picked up by the Wings at the last minute last year". A bit wordy, but it fits. I've used Kader. I really liked Darth Kader the best, but Kader is easier to type since my name is Karen and I know where almost all of the letters are.

selkie 10 Report post Posted May 20, 2009 I kind of like how everyone calls him 18 different things and you still just know who they're talking about. I find it more fun that having everyone settle on one nickname. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
