If you're a big fan of the Boston Bruins, or more specifically Zdeno Chara, then you may not like what nickname the Maple Leafs have given a new teammate.
There Can Only Be One
Reporter David Alter tweeted out what nickname that William Nylander said was given to Zohorna:
William Nylander says he's calling Zohorna �'Big Z''.
Also. Big Z got the belt tonight.
Hearing another player being called Big Z sounds wrong. Although he's retired from the NHL, Zdeno Chara is and always will be the only �'Big Z''. As the former Bruins captain is undoubtedly destined for the Hockey Hall of Fame.
