Hockey fans cannot get enough of Ivan Ivan and his incredible name at the 2022 World Juniors

I think it’s fair to say that Ivan Ivan takes the crown for having the best hockey name of all time.

While the NHL may be in the midst of a long offseason, hockey is still happening worldwide as the 2022 World Juniors are officially underway after being postponed from last December. The under-20 hockey tournament pits the sport’s brightest young stars against one another and offers a great look at the future of the NHL.

Amid all the games, hockey fans came to notice one player that stood above the rest on the basis of name alone. Czechia’s Ivan already made a name for himself in December before the 2022 World Juniors were postponed and recently, he made his triumphant return to the stage during the tournament!

While Ivan’s middle name may not be Ivan like many hoped it’d be for the memes, hockey fans are still absolutely obsessed with Ivan and his incredible name.
