  Teemu Selänne - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Teemu Ilmari Selänne (born July 3, 1970 in Helsinki, Finland), is a professional ice hockey right winger.
As all three were Olympians, the line became known as "the Olympic line." With the help of Selanne and his new linemates, the Winnipeg Jets became a threat for Stanley Cup contention, however Selanne suffered a major leg injury in his second season.
Teemu is a co-owner of HC Salamat, a team playing in the Finnish Mestis league.

Selanne agreed to a one-year, $6.5 million deal with the Sharks on Friday, capping an eventful negotiation between the high-scoring right wing and the team he led in goals last season.

Selanne has had well documented shortfalls as a member of the teal family and the re-signing allows him the opportunity to make amends for what he himself feels have been less than stellar performances on his part.
These declining numbers may have also played a part in Teemu's decision to stay and prove that his numbers are simply a sign of a more defensive trend in the NHL rather than any diminished capacity on his part.
Marleau stands to be the biggest winner in the Selanne sweepstakes as he finally showed consistent signs of finally becoming the player that many experts felt he could be when he was taken with the number 2 overall choice in the draft in 1997.

Selanne was near the peak of his career then, and Japanese friends of mine later confirmed that Selanne was something of a cult hero in certain circles in Japan.
With about 15 minutes left in the third period, a Japanese teenager nudged his way beside me and stayed there to snap pictures of the back of Selanne's head for the rest of the game.
At times he moaned under his breath, repeating, "Teemu, Teeeeemmmuuuuu." It was disturbing, but I didn't have it in me to tell the kid to go back to his seat and watch the game--I figured the moment was probably the highlight of his young, curious life.
