Cal Clutterbuck's New Nickname - Buttercup

I was watching Coach's Corner tonight and Don Cherry called him Buttercup. Had me crack up. In a way Cherry is right. The guy acts like a tough guy, goes out and hits but fights with a visor on.

Before two days ago I never heard of this guy. Now he is super (in)famous. Lots of talk against him on CC/HNIC.

Tonight the Canucks look pissed at Clutterbuck, taking cheapshots against him, etc.

You really had to throw in that last comment didn't you? Like that changes everything.

I like him... he's no worse than the d-bags the Canucks have or had (Cooke).

It just got 5 and a game for boarding. We'd all love him as an Oiler, anyone who sais no should roll around in snow because their pants are probably on fire.

Actually yeah, that's the entire reason why Cherry called him that...

I wouldn't want him on the team, but then I've never been about having the ends justify the means. There were probably a bunch in here that would've wanted Sean Avery on the team, too. People who play like Matt Cooke and Ryan Hollweg should be out of the league, not the kind of player you secretly want on your team.

I wouldn't go that far.

There's about 500 NHL players I'd want on my team before him.

He's got pretty good wheels, is super aggressive and has shown some pretty good hands.

I'd take him as an energy player for sure. He might develop into a top six guy too.

I said on the GDT last night I would love to have Clutterbuck on the Oilers.

The name alone the best in the NHL. Pure comedy gold.

First time I heard his name I though of Cal cluster ____. IMO that should be his nickname.

I happen to agree with Cherry on this one..

Buttercup is a coward for purposely leaving the visor on to fight, then quickly removing it before standing up to head to the penalty box is in every way a cowards act..

I'd take him on this team in a moment. Exactly the kind of guy that good teams need. Hits, aggitates, fights, scores. 10x the player Storts is.

I've never really liked Don Cherry all that much, but that was probably the funniest thing Ive ever heard him say.

On a side note, does anyone know what he does with all those suits of his? He wears a different one every saturday. I cant really see anyone else wearing one.

The suit he wore today is the same one he had made for one of the Oiler home games (I think it was Game 3) of the '06 Finals. The pattern is based off the 3rd jersey (ie. spawn) logo.

EDIT: Here it is:
