Jarkko Ruutu (Jokerit) will not play against Ducks due to minor injury.
Nor will the Dane Nicklas Hardt. Youngsters Alexander Ruuttu (Coyotes 2nd round pick this year, son of Christian) and Teuvo Teräväinen (2012 draft eligible) could be the replacements.
Edit: Markus Hännikäinen will take Teräväinen's place.
Are you seriouse? Dont they know what they look like?
I think they mean they dont recognise other ducks.. but everyone knows what Teemu looks like, im absolutely sure if image was shown, 100% of whom asked would know who he is.
They would probably recognise them if I would take picture of Selänne and Blake next to each other and ask which one is Teemu. I can't really blame my mom 'cos she doesn't watch a lot of hockey but dad should recognise them...
Good, I was worried he might hurt someone on the Ducks
I think Ruutu just didint want to take the heat coming from ducks players... Maybe they would've been like "Hey Rudi what the heck your doing here man? Got no skills for NHL anymore ha ha trolololol?"
I can't wait...tomorrow 2 of my favourite teams face each other and seeing the Ducks live first time is huge thing!!!! and of course seeing Teemu back in Helsinki!!!
With Hardt and Ruutu out, they leave some questionmarks in the line up. Ruuttu or/and Teräväinen could be replacement/s. It would probably only be good for them.
Jokerit leads the FEL right now and top 3 lines have all been productive so far. Although now with two guys out and younger players filling in, the offence is probably weaker. Defence is pretty offensive but defensive Väänänen is the player to watch out for so Ducks' players don't get injured. Kilpeläinen is the starter, he's quite good.
Lets try to keep this on the Ducks and not get overly OT.
I liked you better when you weren't a moderator .
I just noticed that I actually have the channel where they will show tomorrow's game . I'm hoping that the young Finnish players get some icetime so the game will be even more exciting!
Are you guys expecting that RPG plays motivated at all? Or are we going to use the 2nd line as our top line for this one?
Yeah, starting to look pretty ''grey'' time in Latvia to. Last days were pretty cool though - sunny and colourfull.
Completely off-topic but you wouldn't happen to live in Riga would you? If you do, do you know a sports bar that will show the game? I know the Kiwi bar located in the Old Riga shows hockey but they don't have the game scheduled on their website.

Actually, i do live in Riga. And Kiwi bar ussually shows only rugby or soccer. Really doubt about Ducks game, but who knows There are some other sports bars, but haven`t heard anything about them showing NHL hockey. :/
Only chance seeing is if any bar have viassat, which i doubt. And none of bars would take center ice package imo.

To all the Finns going to see their first LIVE Ducks game...congrats! I hope the boys play their hearts out for you guys. Go absolutely ape ****, and make the Buffalo Sabres wish they'd stayed at home. lol
