Ari Vuori, the Detroit Red Wings scout who "found" Ville Leino, is happy for Leino's success. Despite the fact it's not happening in Detroit.
"Of course I'm happy that the guy has shown so many doubters that he's an NHL caliber player. Everyone in the Red Wings organization liked him. Of course there were some problems early in the season, the coach thought Ville didn't score enough points and so on, but we would have liked to keep him in Detroit."
Vuori says the reason to trade Leino was the problem with the team's salary cap, not Leino's performance.
"We got players back from injuries and had to lose one to stay under the cap. That was the reason Ville got traded."
