Jimmy Snuggerud's (STL) First Career NHL Goal

[frederixx]

He's top 6 material. They have some nice young forwards coming in. Future is bright in St Louis

Snuggy is too gen z sounding. Might as well just call him Softie Hugsalot

Hockey names should be grating and rough, like Axe Killkowski, Gunner Gruffman, or Blade MacCutter

Can't argue that, but to be fair, it also has "Rude" in it.

Like his name or not, you're going to be hearing it a lot.

Snuggerud appears to be of Norwegian background.

It's very Norwegian, yes, the name.

Jimmy Snuggerrud sounds like an Irish Mob boss

I think Jimmy the Snuggler sounds more menacing.

Anyway, not the prettiest goal, but only the first of many. Congrats to the kid!

Nonsense. Snuggy, Snuggler, Snuggles - these are names that only a hard mofo can get away with having.

Jimmy Snuggs definitely sounds like an old button man.

Initial reaction, not a fan of the last name.

For that reason, I’m out.

Where all my Rud Boys at???

I could have sworn i remember this name from my childhood. I think it was a Sabres player.

With a name like that, I'm thinking there's a high chance they are related.

It must be absolutely 100% certifiably insane to get plucked from the NCAA hockey playoffs and immediately plopped straight into the NHL on a team in an NHL playoff race and now taking part in said playoffs.

That has to feel fake as hell or like some sort of wild dream that's sure to end at the worse possible time. Has to be completely unreal. Enjoy the ride, kid!

I sometimes think these kids just run on pure adrenaline the first couple dozen nhl games.
