Selänne will have some kind of cooperation with Jokerit (playing is not the case most likely) and that's what they discussed with Rotenberg.

He says he's horny to play for Jokerit?
But one can say that and think good... and likewise say it and think bad. Not sure which way he had in mind?
Only thing missing is a good third line center (Petteri Wirtanen maybe?).Roster atm

Hagman-McLean-Moses
Huhtala-"'X"-Sallinen
Rita-Hahl-Pöysti
Karalahti-Gunderson
Väänänen-Ohtamaa
Korpikari-Lajunen

A good team. It will be interesting to see how the Swedes do, hopefully they do well.
First line looks solid with Harju being a question mark.
I don't think Harju is ever a question mark playing with Omark, they've played together since they were kids and provide tons of synergy.
But Harju was not really a first line worthy player when he played together with Omark in Moscow Dynamo about five years ago. And now he is a worse player than he was then.
He is now 28, normally he should now be better than when he was 23.
I have said it before that too much posters here evaluate players by one KHL season's performance. So many things can effect to the performance: role, lack of PP time, game system, line chemistry/mates, coach, city, etc.But Harju was not really a first line worthy player when he played together with Omark in Moscow Dynamo about five years ago.

Moses has skills, his first season showed it. Last season wasn't good but the whole team sucked. Hagman, hard to say...I hope he trains hard in the summer.But Hagman and Moses in the second line are questionable. Hagman was a disappointment when he played in Yaroslavl and now he is two years older and slower. Moses is nothing special and was not even that great in Liiga last season.

But the team isn't done yet.
We have talked about this before. Look at all his goals from rookie season, there is plenty of goals where Steve creates everything by himself. Steve had said himself that he wasn't ready for full regular season as a pro so he got tired...plus then came the injury. It wasn't all about Fil and EK.But he played with Filppulas and EK. He became a non-factor when they left. Actually cooled off a week or two before Karlsson left. I feel he's a very streaky player. He can go on a minor scoring streak, then cool off for a long while. Needs far too many shots on goal to be a considered a true goal scoring threat. Some questions about his hockey IQ as well as he tends to hog the puck too much. He won't be getting so many scoring opportunities in the KHL either as Westerlund's coaching MO on club level consists of defensive,trapping hockey rather than aggressive (unless his team has a clear roster advantage).
