Ruutu was drafted by the Chicago Blackhawks in the 2001 NHL Entry Draft, as their first-round pick, #9 overall.

If you're excited about Hemsky, wait til you see how good Ruutu is. I definitey think that Ruutu a clear cut candidate for the Calder this year.
I saw Ruutu play one full game so far, and clips of tonights game as well as hilites from SM-Liiga, and the first thing I said to myself is: Wow, this kid is exactly like Forsberg.
I do not know if he'll ever be quite as a prolific scorer (I see Ruutu as more of a 70-80 point man, rather than a 90 - 100 point man), but he plays with even more sandpaper than Forsberg.
