Leino shows the Red Wings, enjoys Philly

Ville Leino recalls the trade that sent him to Philadelphia and says he knew to expect a trade.

"I knew it was going to happen, but you can't be sure until it happens", he says. "There were speculations about it, but it's a shock when it happens. That's how it goes here."

Leino admits he wants to show the Red Wings what kind of a player they lost.

"I've been wanting to show the Red Wings and also everybody else. The expectations were high for this season and the regular season didn't go well. Obviously the playoffs have saved my regular season and I still have the chance to win the Cup on top of that."

Leino has nothing but positive things to say about his time in Philadelphia.

"This is a great time that I will remember for the rest of my life. We have a good group of guys here, good environment and good people. I've enjoyed everything. It's been the best time of my career."
