"Jimmy Howard could break records and challenge Patrick Roy for the world's best goalie of all-time." Suuure he could... NPOV says he can't. Atleast not for now. AMac2002 21:13, 11 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

He's married to my cousin! No joke. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.115.1.69 (talk) 00:57, 22 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

There have been several recent edits removing his nickname "Godpad" in the article's lead sentence. While several have been blatant vandalism, there seems to be a pattern of "Tiberius" ones by several different IPs. Please keep an eye out and be sure to revert and use an appropriate

Until a

WP:MOSBIO for use of nicknames. Jimmy Howard is known professionally as Jimmy Howard, not as Godpad. – Nurmsook! ^talk... 20:05, 17 October 2011 (UTC)[reply

The citation, showing use of his nickname by ESPN writer Robert Vollman is clear. The vandalism removing this is baseless — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.210.99.56 (talk • contribs)

Please see the comments above. That name does not belong there. And also, you're blatantly edit warring here (why I've pulled myself from this). Calabe1992 (talk) 01:46, 18 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

You shouldn't have been in it to begin with. You only joined to assist your buddy nurmsook in vandalizing this page. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.210.99.56 (talk • contribs)

Please see

Does that mean I won't be able to spend every waking day policing a public wiki like yourself? LOL You are one step above a mall cop — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.210.99.56 (talk • contribs)

• I declined an vandalism block [1] for replacing the Nickname on this page. There appears to be an ongoing content dispute which does not constitute vandalism. While the suggestion to remove

The reason for the original block was not only vandalism, but also personal attack. See

WP:3RR, as it has been established that this is vandalism per this talk page and the ANI I linked above. The user(s) in question that continue to add this material have been warned only to retaliate with personal attacks, certainly not something inherent to a content dispute. – Nurmsook! ^talk... 16:44, 12 November 2011 (UTC)[reply

As far as I can tell

WP:MOSBIO refers to the replacement of the nickname as the subjects primary nomenclature not to the inclusion of the nickname in the article. Jeepday (talk) 12:45, 13 November 2011 (UTC)[reply

Jeepday's got the right idea. Godpad will live on. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.243.96.56 (talk) 21:54, 11 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Not here, it won't. Doc talk 21:56, 11 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

You're breakin' my heart, kid.

Also, Godpad.
