Im french myself and I have no clue why the guys on rds pronounce names Wolanin like Volanin, they butcher so many names, i feel like they do it in purpose

I remember when we were pesky. I want to go back to that. Instead it has so far been looking like we’re a team with no finish :(

I heard the push notifications, then checked my iPad.

My first thought was "Man, I wish I could see Boucher's face."

Long season indeed.

If we are struggling to get 20 shots vs this MTL team then we aren’t winning many games at all this season. Buckle up folks!

They go really far with trying to pronounce names the correct/original way. I think they mean well in doing it. They just happen to sometimes guess or even ignore players’ opinions on how their own names should be pronounced.

For example, IIRC the RDS guys insisted on pronouncing Kovalev “Kovaliev” for a long time despite being corrected.

I’d assume they’re pronouncing the W like a V is because (unless I’m mistaken) Wolanin is of polish origin and in polish the W is pronounced like a V in English.
