Title: How to Pronounce Semyon Varlamov View count: 4103 Rating: 5.0 (8 ratings) Description: Russian name Semyon comes from biblical name Simeon. The last name Varlamov comes from Barlaam (the legend about Barlaam and Josaphat). "I will change the spelling," the Washington Capitals goaltender Семен Варламов said after practice. "And I also want to tell you guys to accent it properly. It's not 'SIM-e-un.' It's 'Sim-YOHN."' Therefore, at his request, the hottest rookie netminder in the NHL playoffs will list as Simyon Varlamov on the roster in next season's Capitals media guide. No change in the last name, even though people have been getting that wrong, too. (It's var-LAHM-ov.) /From TSN.ca/ Tags: Семен Варламов, semeon varlamov, semen varlamov, simyon varlamov, washington capitals, nhl, hockey, goalie, goaltender, from russia with glove, Author: maestrothegreat |
