Burnaby WHL star Ryan Nugent-Hopkins no ordinary Joe

Question

Ryan Nugent-Hopkins’ star has been ascending for some time in the Western Hockey League. In 2008, he was selected first overall by the Red Deer Rebels in the WHL bantam draft, and last spring was named league rookie of the year.

Answer 1

Burnaby's Ryan Nugent-Hopkins is threatening to become the next big thing to come from the Lower Mainland, and he intends to do it with all three of his names.Edmonton Oiler rookie Magnus Paajarvi-Svensson recently dropped the Svensson but Nugent-Hopkins isn't on the same wave length. His mother is a Nugent, his father is a Hopkins and he's pretty happy being a combination of the two.
