Confirmed with Link: Leafs invite Alan Lyszczarczyk to development camp

[New Leaf]

Seems like this was decent enough news to post. He just went undrafted. 50 pts for Sudbury this season (second highest behind Sokolov's 52). He could be a candidate for an undrafted 18 year old contract if he does well. Obviously he was on a horrendous team so it's difficult to ascertain his skill without watching him. He also has an interesting story, as a Polish kid who was born in the USA and played junior in the Czech Republic before coming here.

I'm never going to be able to remember how to spell that name

 

[PuckMagi]

Cool I guess. Good luck Alan!

 

[Peace Frog]

I'm never going to be able to remember how to spell that name

Heck, even pronouncing it might give me lock jaw.

I'll just call him "the Czar" LyszCZARczyk

 

[FlareKnight]

Best of luck to Alan.

There's no hope with that last name.

 

[Trapper]

Heck, even pronouncing it might give me lock jaw.

I'll just call him "the Czar" Lyszczarczyk

If he sticks around I'll just call him lizard or lizzy.

Lethargic?

 

[Canada4Gold]

If he ever makes the NHL and scores a goal would he be the first ever NHL goal scorer with 3 z's in his surname?

Genius!

He can fill the Kessel void! At least the part that isn't filled by Marner.

Good kid..

One of the bright spots on the Wolves.

Yeah he was a top scorer. I thought he would have been the perfect 6th or 7th round steal.

He dominated every league going to the OHL, and then did extremely well with very good, but very young, kids.

Let's see what he does. Continue offering guys. Offer Stransky. Derkatch drafted him after all. Offer anyone good

let alone say it.

he will forever be known as Alan.

 

[SeaOfBlue]

I should be better at spelling his name after dropping it for so long in the Entry Draft thread, but even I suck. I think I know how to pronounce it, but spelling it is a whole new game.

"Whose the Leafs Conn Smythe winner."

"Alan."

"Alan who?"

"trust me, just Alan."

He had a double kick move in that one. Uses the same move kick-backhand shot every time.

Highlight reel on him.

 

[WestCoastLeafs]

My uneducated guess at how to pronounce this:

liz TSAR chik

 

[Unhealthy Scratch]

Let's just call him Lizzie McGuire.

 

[TheBigThree]

Kurwa would love a polish guy on this team. Lyszczarczyk is pronounced: lishcharchik

 

[PJJ]

Wish-Char-Chick

 

[Prime Minister]

LYSH-CHAR-CHIK, its also great to see a fellow polak in the leafs system.

The L in his last name is actually a ł letter in his non-Anglicized last name, which makes a w sound in English

Łysz-czar-czyk
Wish-Char-Chick

I always think the Gaelic were last in line the day they were handing out last names but then I remember that we were right in front the Poles. "So what do you have left?" "Hmm lots of Z's,a few S' and some C's"

Gaelic uses only 18 letters with a broad and slender pronunciation for each letter based on the groupings around those letters.
