I think tha Teemu does not know himselfwhat he wants at the moment.
During a junior hockey School in Finland he was discussing with the new
GM of his old team Jokerit, Keijo Säilynoja, who is a junior time friend
of Teemu and played left wing in Teemu's line (they were in a way like
LaLfeur and Shutt, Teemu got the press and Keijo the garbage goals.
Keijo told the media, that Teemu could come back to play for the
Jokerit.
I do not believe that Teemu will come to Montreal for the whole season,
but I could imagine that he would come to play winger for Saku, if he is
not signed with the Ducks then and it would look like the Canadiens are
one sniper short of the cup.
By the way, Matts Sundin would make an exellent winger, he played winger
before he was converted to center in Quebec. In team Sweden he played
wing for Peter Forsberg. I believe he has some respect to Saku, he
cannot forget that Saku has in the international hockey shown that he is
a first class center and playmaker.
