The "huh" was how he got 'Ed' out of that. :lol:

I was curious, so I asked ChatGPT. First it gave me the name Ed Ho, and then I asked for a link to his stats and it switched to Josh Ho-Sang......

Ok, I asked the db master. I gave the criteria of given/registered name to avoid situations where Eddie Mio, who is really Edward Mio, could go by Ed Mio (which he didn't do).

Evidently the answer is 7.

firstName lastName

Ian Cole
Jeff Daw
Sean Day
Max Domi
Nic Dowd
Adam Fox
Matt Foy
Tim Heed

Rob Ray doesn't count because his proper name is Robert Ray apparently.

Wow, thanks. I thought for sure some obscure guy from the '60s would come through with a 5.

Very cool, thanks for looking. :thumb:

I think he would be under "Cameron Lee" if Rob Ray is classified as "Robert".

Cam Lee (according to Google) has been in the KHL for 3 years after 2 in WBS

Utah seems to prefer the Yetis as a name for the team, but there's already a well-known company by that name, and the USPTO has (at least initially) refused the club's trademark application.
