The old timers didn't have a mask on which to paint their nickname and assorted logos. They did, however, have some interesting, if not cool, nicknames. The Chicoutimi Cucumber (George Vezina), "Gump" Worsley, Emil "The Cat" Francis, ". Even when masks came into fashion there was little room to paint your personality onto the front for all to see (except for Cheevers). Eventually we got to see some very cool masks, like CuJo's dog and Van Biesbruck's panther. But back to Schnieder's new nickname and accompanying mask. I am proposing Schniederman. The mask will look great, the headlines are too easy and the potential for spin-offs (and maybe lawsuits) is without boundaries. Come on, let's get on board. It will finally give the Canuck fans something besides "Go, Canucks, Go" and "Leafs Suck" to chant during a game. "Schneiderman, Schneiderman, does whatever a Schneider can"?
