Fitting for a Hurrishark.
Carolina has a history with Finnish players, so I'm sure they've their fair share of Finnish fans for years. Aho+TT are bringing in even more fans. I've liked the Canes since i was a kid because...i liked the logo....when playing NHL 97...One last thing, when exactly did our board get taken over by the Finns?
....and saunas all the way around.
Just about the same time that our team did.
Mainly I think we just glory-hog it like nobody's business.Did Finland invent the sauna?
Holy **** you learn something new every day
Interesting article - in regards to it I hope they weren't taking their recently deceased to a hot steamy roomMainly I think we just glory-hog it like nobody's business.
I mean, no one probably knows where the idea originated, and I'm fairly certain the Indigenous Americans invented their sweat lodge separately of the Eurasian taiga scene.
A while back they unearthed a Bronze Age sauna on the Orkney Islands from around 4000 to 1000 BC. "Finland" was only surfacing from the Baltic sea, and "Finns" were but a distant glimmer in the eye of some Uralic-speaking sob wanting to score some Boat Axe people bootang.

Was teuvo the one we called lazy based on his physique in a picture with his shirt on?
At the time we acquired him there was a lot of talk that he didn’t take his off-season training seriously at all. If I recall correctly, he used to spend his summers golfing.
And since he was traded to Carolina, he gets to spend his springs golfing as well.
I hope he doesn't fall apart if it starts looking bad for his golf hobby in the late March.And since he was traded to Carolina, he gets to spend his springs golfing as well.
I wonder if he took a team-friendly deal because he's confident he'll get to start warming up his golf game in March every year? Hmmmmmmmm....I hope he doesn't fall apart if it starts looking bad for his golf hobby in the late March.

Teuvo Teräväinen - CapFriendly - NHL Salary Caps
No Signing Bonuses, only a minimal lockout protection in form of the suspected lockout seasons paying a little less.
They submit the list before the season in question starts I believe. A 10 team no-trade list like Teuvo got here shouldn't be too difficult to deal with. The player gets to close out some unwanted destinations, but that's it.Free advice to NHL GMs who for some reason haven't figured this out yet: I know you like giving out NTCs because they can save you some cash, and I know it seems like a no-brainer when you really can't imagine trading the guy anyway. And I know you are more likely to agree to a NTC when you are buying out UFA seasons.
BUT, the one time you do *not* want a player to have a NTC is in the final year of a multi-year contract, which is the one and only time you'd probably even consider trading the guy you just signed, for the good of the future of the team. You guys are hamstringing yourselves and hamstringing your team. It should be pretty simple to create a team policy that says this, and to stick to it. There is no reason a guy should have a NTC at the trade deadline when he's about to be a UFA. He's already got a ton leverage and you're giving him even more.
I wonder if he took a team-friendly deal because he's confident he'll get to start warming up his golf game in March every year? Hmmmmmmmm....
Last summer he apparently played 4 under par once. Propably he is seriously hoping to get second career on there later
For Finns, there's nice interview on NHLWAM series with him and Aho from the beginning of season (and also from previous sesons in other episodes)https://www.nordicbet.com/fi/blogi/nhlwam/season-7-osa-1/
For non-Finns, you can see at 9:45 how his penalty shot practice [ ] was going on summer and also you can see how both of the guys looks in front of camera with finnish language, when basically interviewd by their old friends (=no wonder if in english in more official condition they look shy).
