Jussi! You Got Some Explaining To Do!
Normally I would have added this as an update to the last post about Jussi Jokinen, but this is so mysterious that I thought it deserved a post of its own.
Just what the heck is up with this, Mr. Jokinen?
So sexy, indeed...
God help Jokinen if Bill Guerin finds out about this. He'll never hear the end of it.
I know we have lots of readers from Finland. What in the wide world of sports is going on here?
Thanks to Asim Naqvi for the pointer.
UPDATE: Samuli Laukka just dropped off a note clearing everything up:
It seems Jussi Jokinen is a forward of beach soccer team So Sexy from Kalajoki, Finland. On the website it says that in 2002, So Sexy won the Finnish championship.
If this gets out in the Dallas locker room, it'll be so sexy it hurts, if you know what I mean...
More about the tournament here: http://www.smbeachfutis.fi/
It's not a very serious sport, I'd guess.
Also Joni Puurula - http://www.sosexy.org/dokut/joni.html - of So Sexy team is a professional hockey player, by the way. He is a 23-year-old goalie who plays for TPS Turku (and is drafted by Montreal Canadiens, it says on the So Sexy website).
Crazy stuff...
UPDATE: A pink stick is available if Jussi would like one.

Fantastic. I wish we had Finns in other US sports, too.

Luckily, I'm pretty sure Guerin's seen it. I live in Dallas & one of the radio shows here has Guerin on every week. They said they were definitely going to give him that pic, just like they gave Guerin & Arnott copies of this pic when the Stars acquired Val Bure 2 years ago:
