No Dustin Byfuglien to the Flyers rumor? I never thought I'd see the day where Ek would omit the orange and black from a Big Buff rumor!

Haha big buff was just fishing in Kenora. He simply doesn't care about hockey at the moment. He is just enjoying life and hanging out with his family in Winnipeg. No chance he wants to go uproot his kids to finish his contract with the rest of the Wilds retirement community. If he comes back, it will be with the jets.

There is a solid Finnish community on NY


Of the 700,000 people in the US who claim Finnish ancestry, reportedly only about 3500 live in New York City.

Also, the Habs only have 3 Finns on the roster right now, tied with Carolina and Columbus, and one less than Nashville, who has 4.

Unless you count Karl Alzner then that would be 4 because he's Finnished

b..b..but Saku Koivu! This is probably the first time I have seen Ek make up a rumour specifically based on the player's nationality.

According to the 2009 US Census, there are 8 times as many people of Finnish heritage in Michigan as there are in New York State.

Hey Ek. If your sources mentioned the "end of December" deadline for Puljijarvi, maybe you should find a new source...the deadline is December 1.

Also, Tobias Rieder has a $700K cap hit. I highly doubt that the Sabres are interested but the cap hit is the hold-up. They probably don't want to free up a roster spot for him, especially with the log-jam on defense that will likely prompt an imminent trade.

Otherwise pretty solid intel here.

Ek, your title mentions 3 teams are interested in Puljijarvi, but then your blog says 4 teams, but then you only list 3 teams. Is there a 4th team? I wonder if it's Dallas? They have 3 Finns - Hintz, Heiskanen, and Lindell. Also, Jere Lehtinen used to play there. It's settled then. Dallas is the 4th team. E4.

Sabres insted in Tobias Rieder...

ya, ok.
27, L4 player who got waived after posting 1/0/1 pts in 11 games...on pace for 8 points this season.
Ya, that's what the Sabres are looking for.

Good Lord.
