THE Most Important Sabres Question You Will Ever Answer

Which Sabre gets ownership of the nickname 'Reggie'?

  • Andrej Sekera. He's been with the team the longer of the two, he gets it. (45%, 25 Votes)
  • Robyn Regehr. He is the elder statesman of the defense corps, which has some priveleges. (33%, 18 Votes)
  • Neither, as 'Reggie' doesn't make sense for either one (see my reasoning on this below). (22%, 12 Votes)

Total Voters: 55

It started when I heard Rhett Warrener (and possibly Jordan Leopold?) call Robyn Regehr ‘Reggie’ in interviews, and I haven’t been able to shake this VERY IMPORTANT question ever since.  Many of you know I have a problem with Andrej Sekera being called ‘Reggie’, because the J IS SILENT in his name.  But!  Robyn Regehr’s claim in that regard is no better – Reg-ear is the G sound, not the J sound.  This team, as far as I’m concerned, has NO Reggie.

Actually, not that I think about it, Silent J would be an outstanding nickname for Sekera.  I think it shall be my goal this season to get that into common usage.  Help me out!
