Devils Sign Finnish Player Anssi Selmela

by Jeanne on May 31st, 2008

The New Jersey Devils have offered Finnish defenceman Anssi Salmela a deal.  While the details are not yet known, it does sound like a good deal since the 23-year-old free-agent had 16 goals and 16 assists in 56 games with Tappara of the Finnish League last season.

Salmela could sound familiar if you watched the 2004 World Junior Hockey tournament and this year’s world championship event.  I have to admit that I don’t know much about him but I did find this video of his fighting with Team USA’s David Backes during the IIHL Championships earlier this month.
