It is assumed that he was given the name after the Stingley hit, but I remember hearing him called "Assassin" when he was at Ohio State. He was also called "Crunch" at Ohio State. Many people don't know that he was also known as "Reverend".

I knew about the Reverend nickname.. Yeah, most starting referring to him as the Assassin from what I read after the Stingley deal which isn't right. He was called "crunch" at OSU? Interesting...

Problem is people look at the hits more than the hitter. He could have easily been paralyzed himself with those hits. Jmho
