The interview was done in January, so he wasn't on the pens yet, but it's nice to get alittle more insight into the personality (via google translator of course) of our new hero Janne Pesonen.
When asked to describe himself as a hockey player, Janne responded:
The first comes to mind a good skating, and a certain type of hard drive - all done each team's effort in this regard. Silloin tuntuu parhaalta, kun joukkue menestyy. It seems the best policy, when a team to succeed. Täytyy myös sanoa nälkä, joka ei koskaan lopu. I must also say hunger, which never run out. Eli todella voitontahtoisena pelaajana. In other words, really voitontahtoisena player.Read the rest of the interview here
I mean, this is perfect, ask any of my friends, all season long, even throughout our dominating playoff run, all I kept saying was, man the pens are great, but we really need a voitontahtoisena player...and, if only we had some voitontahtoisenas on our team, we'd be able to win the cup no problem... So after reading this, you cannot believe how happy i am to know that Janne is a self-described voitontahtoisena player, i just hope he really can bring a level of voitontahtoisena to the pens...
In other news, this picture has been circulating the internet, and I wanted to clear the air on it...
Yeah, I actually took this picture in the future, next year at this time to be precise. Hossa and Conks are laughing about two things, the irony about how they left the Penguins to win a cup then the Penguins went on to win the cup in 2008-2009, and the other thing they are happy about is that Janne just knocked up Conks wife, so atleast one of his many kids will have the genes of a good hockey player...

VERY FUNNY!! I appreciate your humor (I'll probably be linking up to you on a post for tomorrow)!!
Anyway, did you happen to see why that picture is circulating? Maybe you wanna try your hand at creating a caption for it (if you don't know what I'm talking about, click HERE)
I didn't get to read the Pesonen article over at MTV3 yet, but I'm very anxious to -- you're working very hard to find things on him, arent you (you're doing a great job!)?
Dude, do you have any idea how hard it is to find a voitontahtoisena hockey player in the NHL these days? You are doing excellent work my friend! You are bringing the massive voitontahtoisena to the blogosphere and I look forward to reading even more voitontahtoisena writing in the future!
By the way, your awesome voitontahtoisena just got bookmarked.
Go Pens!
i appreciate the compliments rage, spread the word of Janne
