Reijo R-u-o-t-s-a-l-a-i-n-e-n. That's better :naughty:

I like Sprague Cleghorn. To my Finnish ears, it sounds like a cattle breed or something.

And I've always liked Sergei Kapustin (Kapustin=cabbage?); his name sounded very cool when I was a kid.

Although still to make his NHL debut (as far as i know) I'll go for:

Wacey Rabbit

I just wonder whether Elmer Fudd will eventually catch him and nail him with a monster hip-check at center ice.!!

My stock answer remains the same:

Pekka Rautakallio.

Played in the WHA (A Finnish player in Phoenix, now that's an adjustment), starred in SM-Liiga, and was the first Finn to play in the NHL all star game.

Sometime before I die, I'm going to own an Atlanta Flames jersey with his name on it.

Yeah, yeah, that sounds melodramatic, but its still the off season, damn it.
