Running Ron's Nicknames


RobDeer 45

Question. What will RRR call Lyle Overbay? I thought about this while reading the article about him today. It's a tricky one for Ron.

 

Lyle-y

Overbay-y

Over-y (yes, I meant to do that)

 

I feel like he probably has sat in his bed at night with some pen and paper and worked on this one.

He shouldn't worry about it unless Ovie (my guess) actually makes the team.

I'm guessing O too. By hockey rules, if the player's name ends with the eee sound, it's often correct to shorten it.

 

An example is in St Louis, TJ Oshie is referred to as Osh.
