Just realized Milic was sent down to Norfolk and tried to figure out when their season starts. Went to their roster page, and spotted this.

Surely we can make an educated guess as to what position these two players play, Norfolk?

Vesalainen went quiet for a bit but is up to 16 points in 13 games. 10 points in his last 3.

So ........ does he just need that home cooking? Or did Jets blow the development? Something else?

It is looking like he could have been a useful offensive player but could not fit himself into the mold Jets wanted.

:dunno: probably doesn't matter much now. Liiga seems to be trending down in terms of league quality so even if he tears it up I wouldn't put too much stock into it.
 
Do the Jets retain his rights? I don't see him fitting into the Jets' pipeline now, with McGroarty, Barlow, Lambert, Chibrikov, Lucius, but if he looks like a bona fide NHL prospect maybe the Jets can get a pick for him?
Yes they tendered him a Qualifying Offer this summer so they continue to own his rights.

I see him as a throw in in a potential deadline trade if it happens.
 
What did he do?
Crosschecked a Rögle player in the face in front of the net. Stupid but not malicious. There's a video on the SHL website attached to the disciplinary committee's decision. Too bad the formal decision isn't visible, it usually also contains the player's explanation for what happened.

BESLUT FRÅN SVENSKA ISHOCKEYFÖRBUNDETS DISCIPLINNÄMND - ELIAS SALOMONSSON

Unfortunate since he was having a good week (0+3 in two games, all nice primary assists) and was looking to get around ~20 minutes while getting no PP time in the Rögle game.
