I would not give up on Puustinen just yet. He may have an escape clause in his contract with this Finnish team. Signed the deal as a back up plan to ensure he has a place to play next season. Help him get a few more bucks from Sutter because now he has some leverage.
Maki could have returned for good. He had already spent a couple of years over here but might have an escape clause too.
I don't want Sutter to give up drafting Euros. European talent has always been a weak spot in the organization.
