Hmmm not the guy I'm thinking of but maybe Jacques Plante does as well. I can't imagine what the 5 variations would be unless they are mostly typos. For the guy I'm thinking of, he has 5 variations of his name on the Cup and none were typos.
lol. I could only think of someone with two variations
"Basil Pocklington" and "xxxxx xxxxxxxxxx"

but in searching for Basil's name I found Julian's answer.
won't post it because googling doesn't count.
It is surprising how many typos have made it on the Cup though! (including 3 team names)

I'll be outta here shortly and probably not back until tomorrow sometime, so you can let someone know they get I right.

Jean Beliveau?
Right team but wrong player. He's also a hall of famer.

Think of a 1st name that can have many nicknames/variations. You could also say that this guy was somewhat of a "prick".

I know it but I've answered too many already. I will say that he is still alive and I would love it if someone would hire him on the trainer's staff so that he could win a 6th and put "Doctor Rick"

I'm not sure if I can give any MORE clues without giving the answer away.

When we were told he was a bit of a "prick", I naturally first thought of Harold Ballard. But we all know he was a loser....
