Be patient with Ruutu. He's what, 20? He's still adjusting to the NA style of play plus he's also on a very, very bad team.
Henrik Zetterburg in the first half of 02-03 had 12 points in his first 39 games.
In the last 40 he had 32, 15 of which were goals.

Ruutu will probably finish the season with 25-30 points. Not bad by any standards especially for a 20 year old European on possibly the worst team in the NHL.
