I thought they called him Murrs?? None of them have any ability to anunciate though so I might be mishearing.

da

The players themselves call him Murr (or some variation of it -- Murrdawg, lol). I've seen fans call him Muzz, but haven't heard players do so (but I don't follow their media that closely so who knows).

Okay, why hasn't Murrdawg caught on? It wins my vote for best variation

agreed.

Well this at least makes me feel less crazy. Minus Geno and Tanger I guess maybe my pens fan friends don't really call players by nicknames of their own creation??

Re: Fandom Venting

From: (Anonymous)
Huh? Geno and Tanger aren't fan-created nicknames at all? Or do your Pens fan friends call them other things?

Re: Fandom Venting

From: (Anonymous)
Sorry. That was 2 really separate thoughts that I combined and made wicked confusing.

Most of my pens friends don't have fan-created nicknames.

And if they call players by nicknames they use the mainstream ones.

And I wish Sidney Crosby's mainstream nickname was Bing. But maybe it's funnier because Kris Letang is the only one who calls him that??

Muzz seems like a WBS thing, because the very first time Sullivan gave a presser about Murray in the NHL, he called him Muzz.

It makes me a little sad when nickname change during a team change. (Sometimes they get stupider, which makes me frown.)

Well think of poor Junior! He's gone through a billion nicknames, all because he's no longer the sole Kuni.

He's a case in point
