I'm just dorky enough to love it.  More importantly, I wonder what number he will wear, he wore 96 for EV Zug and the Swiss Olympic team, I dont see them giving him Homer's old number so soon after his retirement.

At least 666 is out of the question. But if he goes with 63 (or 36) I'm checking his mother's grave for jackal remains.

^{The Omen™}

 

I almost said this but wasn't sure how many people would get the reference.  Well played.

[The Axe]

So far, these are the best:

1) The Omen
2) ODB
3) Brunsie

How about B. Rabbit, Brunny Rabbit, or Little Brunny Foo Foo?  On second thought it doesn't seem so fearsome after I type it.

I like Rabbit by itself. The monty python kind!!!

[kipwinger]

Yeah that's not too bad, but regardless of what his nickname is I'll be screaming "You've been...Brunder Struck!" in my best AC/DC voice every time he nets one.

Does he have a habit of bopping field mice on the head?

God knows what they do in Switzerland for fun, but I generally don't trust those of Germanic persuasion and have no reason to believe they wouldn't bop defenseless field mice, if their insatiable blood lust temporarily subsided long enough to engage in leisure activity.

Thumbs up to:

The Omen

Brunnerstruck

Bruns of Steel

 

Love the Brunny FooFoo, but not so much for hockey unless he turns onto a GOON!

[LeftWinger]

The surname Bruner is of German origin and is a variant spelling of Brunner, which is a topographic name for someone who lived beside a spring or well.

 

Hmmmm...I am still lost for ideas....

[FifeHockeyNut]

Irn Bru (Scottish soft drink, and as he's a soft Euro ;-) lol)

[Travis]

I like ODB a lot, and it gets my vote.

For fun though, I'll add:
Bruns N Roses
Cool Brunnings
Brunt Force Trauma
Swiss Beats
Dirt McGirt

[Euro_Twins]

I'm in favour of just calling him brunner, let murph or mickey come up with some ridiculous homer name, they are way better at this than us. Only difference is they don't realize how ridiculous they sound. lol

[fat guy in a maltby jersey]

how about we wait until he's actually played an NHL game?

Every party needs a pooper!!!

[Marty Barry]

Don't care what we call him as long as is doesn't end being "bummer".

I'm in for ODB or Swiss Beats! Swiss Beats would also allow us to call him Swiss Miss when he...you know.
