YoungGuns1340 1 Report post Posted May 31, 2009 Helmer. Nothing special, but it works. I hate it when people call him "Helmer." I immediately think of Bryan Helmer - the borderline NHL/AHL defenseman. Bad association. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Theophany 110 Report post Posted May 31, 2009 I just call him Helm. It's kinda ridiculous to try and give a guy with an incredibly short last name a nickname. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
weGotTheCup89 41 Report post Posted May 31, 2009 I've been calling him 'Super Bambi.' That because when we saw him in the earlier rounds he was always going so fast that he would end up on all fours by the end of the play, and now whenever we see him he's out to get somebody like they just killed his mom.

LeftWinger 4,963 Report post Posted May 31, 2009 That's a good one. What about WTC? He's like a plane crashing into a skyscraper. The WTC is what fell, the opponenets should have that name if you want to reference that. In that case Helm would be the planes crashing into the WTC's, so he would be called "Inside Job."

C-TownWing 0 Report post Posted May 31, 2009 I hate it when people call him "Helmer." I immediately think of Bryan Helmer - the borderline NHL/AHL defenseman. Bad association. I call him Helmer AND think about Bryan Helmer when I do it. It's weird, I know. I just don't do long nicknames, because if it's easier to say the guy's actual name, I'm going to say the guy's actual name. Mule is a perfect nickname. It's short, it fits, and it breaks the hockey cliche of taking the first syllable of the name and adding -y/-ie, -s or -er to it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
