How is that pronounced in America anyway? Goon-tzel? Ginn-tzel?

I'd go with Gwen-tzel but that's probably wrong.

Bryan Rust

And I think I've heard it as "Gentzel."

 

[wej20]

Is it me or is Rust's forehead massive?

I'm riding the Megna train to hell.

that solves the pronounceable question.

Ghen-zel? Ginn-zel?

Guentzel has a rocket for his size

Interesting to not see any other D chosen after the top 4.

Went with Rusty. Seems likes he's pretty good at everything. Hard working, good on the PK, and has some scoring ability.

Seems like he should be a pretty good 3rd/4th liner in a couple years.

PS: as for the pronunciation of Guentzel, apparently ue in German is the same thing as ü which makes a weird sound that doesn't really exist in English. but then again, it all really depends on how he pronounces it and how media people establish it. I personally would just say "Gen-tzil"
