No score after 1 period in Bridgeport. Chippy game so far. Lots of extracurriculars after every whistle. Bruins initiating most of that-Samuel Assellin and Oskar Steen.

Isles are getting good penetration on the Bruins defense. Many chances from in close on Grosenik. Isles also guilty of overpassing and trying to make plays that aren’t there at the Bruins blue line.


You’re not bored, you’re not a degenerate gambler addicted to the action, and playing for play money is no fun anyway.
I thought Asselin looked really good.

That’s the correct pronunciation

This is more of the play and how he joined the rush.


I want to see him and Kappo Kakko get into a fight and hear Butch call the blow by blow.

BTW. nice sign that Raty is wearing #16, which is available with the big club and is a number he could wear for his whole career (not a rookie number).

100% not.

His surname is spelled Räty, which doesn't contain an "a" or a "oo" in it.
The Ä is pronounced somewhat similar to "cast" in American English, but more open.
the Y will be pronounced closer to "ee" or "y" at the end of a word in English,

So "Ratee" is far closer to the correct way of saying it

They can definitely be wrong but I think the broadcasters asked him in training camp and the way the Bridgeport announcer said it is the same as how Brendan Burke said it's supposed to be pronounced. I wonder if he just said yes to make it easier or something.

I’ve heard him say it and the Liiga Broadcast say it all the same way

A-2 Ra-2

A-2 is quite right (also in the broadcast) but Ra-2 is wrong as it sounds like Ratu to Finnish person instead of Räty. So basically both vowels are pronounced wrong in Räty. North americans probably won't ever get it 100% right but Ratu/Ra-2 is probably the way they call it in NA.
