I just noticed on Eurohockey.net that Maki (Jokerit) and Puustinen (Blues) signed in Finland over the past week.

For Maki, I can see why he might want to resume his career in Finland. He is getting older and was looking to be an NHL long shot. He can probably have a more rewarding career over there.

For Puustinen, I'll be disappointed if he doesn't come back and give it a shot. He has a lot of skill but needs a lot of development time still.

Any thoughts on this?
