In the News (Fri 5 Dec 08)

  
  Historical Recordings by Master Folk Musicians — Virtual Finland
A regular guest on the folk music programme was Teppo Repo (1886-1962), a master of the shepherd's flute and the birch bark horn.
Sieluni rakkaudelle ja sen vastaus (To the beloved of my soul, and her answer), played on the shepherd’s flute and recorded in 1948, is a typical example of Repo’s imaginative "self-made tunes" based on traditional folk motives.
Over the years Repo regularly recorded new tunes for Väisänen’s collection, and when Väisänen was appointed professor of music at the University of Helsinki, Repo also got a job as the caretaker of his house.

 The Fourth Period :: Phoenix Coyotes :: Barnett Shakes up West — Again!
Speculation and rumors had the Coyotes interested in signing their former captain and fan favorite Teppo Numminen, who had become a free agent this summer.
The only hold back is The Repo Man's desire for at least a 2-year contract.
The Coyotes' money is better spent on a younger, healthier player who improves the offense and coupling the signing with a trade that addresses the defensive concerns with Saprykin as an added bonus.

 Arizona Sports Fans Network - Coyotes Preview on NHL.com
We do have questions marks (Burke's health, a young defense, need to improve PP and PK), but name a club in the NHL that doesn't have some sort of major question hanging over its head right now.
If Mara and Vaananen step up to the next level, and without Teppo to defer to I think they will, and if Burke stays healthy, or at least doesn't miss long stretches like last season, I see no reason why we won't be contending for a playoff spot.
The defense will be good and great in the years to come even without Repo.

PHOENIX (Ticker) -- If the Phoenix Coyotes are successful in their bid for a playoff berth, then captain Teppo Numminen may prove to be the key.
Numminen continued his offensive resurgence with two goals as the Coyotes maintained their perfect record in March, rallying from a two-goal deficit for a 3-2 triumph over the Ottawa Senators.
And it was a nice pass from Doaner on Repo's goal and we just rolled from there."

 Sabre Rattling: February 2006
Now that the Olympics are finally over and we can get back to the stretch drive of the regular season its good to see Mika Noronen being smart about trying to up his trade value by finally accepting a conditioning stint down in the AHL with Rochester.
Two guys who we already know are in good shape, Teppo Numinnen and Toni Lydman played their hearts out Sunday morning trying to bring Finland their first Olympic gold medal.
As it stands, Numminen still has yet to win a major tournament or a round of the playoffs, and this is something I hope his teammates take to heart over the next 49 days.

Tri was paired with Teppo Numminen against Tampa the other night, and didn't look too bad.
Speaking of Teppo, he finally bulged the twine for the Sabres, having compiled an NHL record 32 assists before finally doing so.
There will be plenty of other Sabres in attendance during those two weeks in Italy as Teppo Numminen and Toni Lydman will certainly skate for Finland, Jochen Hecht for Germany.
