Re: Writing Thread
From: (Anonymous)Remember Grossmann? He played his whole freaking career before the Flyers with only one n on his jersey. These things happen.
Re: Writing Thread
From: (Anonymous)Oh totally. And I also think sometimes it becomes too much of a hassle to convince everyone that "no that really isn't how you say my name, despite the fact that that's how you've been saying it forever." And some guys just wait til their in a new market to say "aaaactually it's pronounced *****"
Or you have cases like Simon Despres who basically instructs everyone to pronounce his name incorrectly because it's easier than the alternative.

You're somewhat dependent on how your GM (or whoever ends up making the call) does in reading them, and on the person at the NHL, but the pronunciations mostly stay consistent from year to year, right or wrong. The spelling key they use has a lot of limitations. I just heard a guy on the radio say that Jason Zucker's last name rhymes with looker, which I had not realized before, if true.

Re: Writing Thread
From: (Anonymous)"Phonetic" spellings are useless and annoying for you and me, but that's about what you cam expect all the media as a whole to be able to do.
