How many syllables in Mukhamadullin?

Are we in hockey boredom that we talking about how many syllables are in a name?

Still 11 more days until we have another game!

Isn't it Randy's job to know this?

Am I my play-by-play commentator's keeper?

If the k is silent I can see why an announcer will forget to emphasize the second syllable “ha”

The k isn't silent per se but the kh in Latin letters is the closest you can get to getting across the sound in Russian. It's like an h but more phlegmy

Rusanowsky is the only guy who respects European pronunciations tbh.

Nobody wants that much phlegm on a hockey broadcast.

The real question is how many syllables in Vlasic.

And of course the answer is "He's a f***ing superstar so it's however many he feels like at any given moment."

Do not derail the thread. Make a separate one for Bobby-Édouard Bure.

For a superstar of Vlasic's caliber any thread is a Vlasic thread if he deems it so. I don't make the rules here. My hands are tied.
