Conceptually Space Wolves are okay (beyond, as you say, viking shit being a magnet for Nazis). My problem for them is that they're so poorly written.
If I said something like "the battle between Svane Vulfbad and Harald Deathwolf", most people would be hard pressed to figure out if I'm mocking the Space Wolves or referencing a real canon event.
