It has to be something simple...
that Joe Bowen wouldn’t come up with in his rambling descriptors of the goaltenders right before the game…
I vote for something like “legs” or “bootlegger” << which would be a direct reference to his modelling career… plus it brings in all sorts of imagery of rye running across the border… and protecting the economy of Canada by capitalizing on the downturn in the U.S.
The friendly giant? he’s pretty big… but not exactly gigantic.
Here’s something weird:
pogge
/pɒg/ Show Spelled Pronunciation [pog]
–noun
a poacher, Agonus cataphractus, common near the British Isles and ranging north to Greenland and Iceland.
Also called armed bullhead.
So he’s a poacher??? seems fitting.
"Success is the ability to go from one failure to another with no loss of enthusiasm."
- Sir Winston Churchill
I'm pretty sure he's talking about the Leafs.
Pogge's nickname
Hagman is Haggy; Ponikarovski is Poni (and I’m going to out on a limb and guess that it has nothing to do with S.E. Hinton); Stempniak is Stemper (not Distemper? C’mon!); Finger is Fings.
I’m guessing the best we can hope for is “Poges” or “JP”
In Sweden, Frogren was known as “Fridge”

I wonder..
Do you think that perhaps the Leafs got too used to years of excellent goaltending (Classic Cujo, Eddie) that now pretty much any goalie they get in there is just assumed to be awesome? Like, “come on, we have the goalie to fall back on! they always bail us out! Wait, who’s that guy in the net?” and not even the suck times of Raycroft and Toskala have shifted this view?
I’m guilty of it myself, I had thought Toskala was still good way past the point it was pretty obvious he isn’t..
by LeafFanInVan on Dec 23, 2008 7:56 PM EST up reply actions
Well, I think we did get used to some pretty good goaltending but Leafs goalies over the last few years have been near the bottom of the league statistically. (Raycroft screaming “but…but…franchise record for single season wins!” in background
by Mirinov's Nose on Dec 23, 2008 8:03 PM EST up reply actions
Yah, despite that sucking I’m thinking that leaf fans and possibly management still hang on to the idea that the goaltending is good, even when it isn’t. Like just by playing for the Leafs an average goaltender will become some kind of crazy acrobatic cujo/eddie/potvin hybrid. Sadly, that is not the case!

Wilson: How long after we’re declared overdue can we expect a rescue?
Burke: [pause] Two periods.
Toskala: Two periods? Hey man, I don’t wanna rain on your parade, but we’re not gonna last two minutes! Those things are gonna come in here just like they did before. And they’re gonna come in here…
Wilson: Toskala!
Toskala: …and they’re gonna come in here AND THEY’RE GONNA GET US!
Wilson: Toskala! This little goalie survived longer than that with no weapons and no training.
[to Pogge]
Wilson: Right?
[Pogge apes a salute]
Toskala: Why don’t you put her in net?
Wilson: You better just start dealing with it, Toskala! Listen to me! Toskala, just deal with it, because we need you and I’m sick of your bullshit.

I’d rather they acquire some busted down oldster goalie to let goals in by the bucketload then put too much pressure on pogge too early.. Oh wait, we have cujo! Excellent!

i think POgge and Cujo should split duties 50/50 and there should be no pressure on him cause its a rebuilding year

BALLS!
I hate the Leafs more than Mats Sundin tonight. Make of that what you will. Full (and hopefully hilarious) write-up tomorrow if these muscle aches and chills don’t turn out to be the flu

Perhaps your body is rejecting the suck that is the Leafs.
On a happy note, the Canucks were brutalized by the Sharks. It was damn ugly.
