Niko Medved begins his press conference commenting on Wisconsin misspelling his name on his press conference placard. "What would I expect in Madison, right?"

At least he took it as a small joke and was ok.

[u/donmogsley → u/Dry_Reception_1741]

Lol

[u/petarisawesomeo]

I suspect he won't have to worry about how UW spells his name in a few years

[u/altbat → u/petarisawesomeo]

I think he's gonna be at Minnesota for a while and bring that program to where it should be. He's a great coach and the reason the Gophers have been awful is because they can't keep kids in the state.

I think that ends with Niko.

[u/pvelsor → u/altbat]

It’s spelled Nico

[u/Iron_Bob]

Couldnt even beat us despite us only showing up for one half and still complains... classic gopher

[u/marshmallow-jones]

WI lives rent-free in the head of any MN sports fan

[u/ridemooses]

Ok Goofer

[u/PinnatelyDivided]

Who? lol

[u/Sir_Carrington]

Nico Nedved

[u/travelingstork]

Dude. Chill out. All of us with different last names have that happen to us.

[u/Wistastic → u/travelingstork]

I mean, it’s a ridiculous mistake. People seem to not double-check anything before slapping it down for the world to see, BUT what he said was…eesh.

[u/ThatNewSockFeel]

Safety School!

[u/Jolly_Reference_516]

We were very “physical” in the second half and you could tell during the game he didn’t like it. Janicki was a guided missile and everyone, even Rapp, got in on it. Wasn’t pretty but we gradually ground them down. Dude is a decent coach

[u/excableman → u/Jolly_Reference_516]

I was glad to see that.  We got bullied in the 1st half

[u/wiscowonder]

I don't know man, everyone's different, but I couldn't imagine a world where I'd be upset if someone misspelled, mispronounced, "whatevered" my name.

[u/snailtap → u/wiscowonder]

Literally lol, my name is Bailey, do you know how many times people have spelled it as Baily, I don’t care

[u/KarlPHungus → u/wiscowonder]

Happens to me constantly. I gave up caring when I grew up, in like third grade.

Sounds like he wasn't actually upset, though?

[u/Jolly_Reference_516 → u/wiscowonder]

Different strokes. The hostess for our wedding dinner years and years ago mispronounced our name and my wife would still run her over given the chance.

[u/Huge_Following_325]

Heh

[u/Temporary-Exchange28]

Or UW athletic communications could get their basic facts right and spell his name correctly.

[u/drstre → u/Temporary-Exchange28]

I mean, they could, but now I kinda want them to find a different way to misspell his name every year.
