Meaning Behind the Name Harumpf!

Recently Oskars Harumpf has been asked where he got his unique name. Some speculated it was a common name in his hometown of Middelfart Denmark, but none were sure the exact origin. In an effort to put the rumors to bed, Harumpf will reveal where his amazing name came from. If you viewed the video above, you'll know that it's derived from a great word used in one of the all time funniest movies "Blazing Saddles." Some of you may remember this hilarious movie, but it was obviously made before 99% of the league was even born, so it's possible that clip is new to many of you. If you have not seen the movie, go watch it immediately, you will not regret it. If you enjoy watching movies under the influence of whatever your vice is, even better. You'll laugh your nuts off.

 

Anyway, Harumpf is a words used to express general discontent by a group or person, kind of like "rabble rabble." It's also a great word for the name of a dwarf, since most dwarves are grumpy and surly in nature. At 5'5" at 250 pounds, Oskars Harumpf is about as close to a dwarf as we'll ever find in the VHL, so the name clearly fits. But enough about me, let's talk about the Helsinki Titans!

 

Helsinki has just made a huge trade to bring in that guy name Gow, maybe you've heard of him? Well to be honest Harumpf had not heard much about him, but that was in no way a reflection of Gow's superstar status as much as it was Harumpf not knowing enough about the league. He quickly found out after the trade from looking at Gow's player page and stats that the dude is pretty good.

 

How good you ask?.....

Yep, so he's pretty good. Gow should help put the Titans over the top this season as they were already in 1st place. Holding a big lead in the European conference at the time of the trade, there's no question now that Helsinki should win the division and be a favorite for the cup. Oskars Harumpf is excited for the potential of this team and can't wait to see who his new line mate will be. The trade should allow Naomi Young to stop having to be double shifted and either James Faraday or Jackson Miller should slide down to play with Harumpf. We doubt Gow will play with Harumpf, but you never know. A line of Harumpf-Stokes-Faraday/Miller should be pretty lights out. Oskars has been playing well but now with more attention being paid to better players, he should be able to sneak a few more points in. He's pretty sneak already, being just 5'5", but his 250 pounds is usually gives him away. Regardless, Harumpf should be in for a strong remainder of the season and playoffs. He's approaching 50 points already and should be able to break his rookie scoring mark of 51 points as he already has over 40 points in 50 games this season.

 

Look for Harumpf and the Titans to continue to play well down the stretch and be a force in the playoffs. There's no question the Titans will leave opponents saying "Harumpf!"
