Ville Peltonen, Florida Panthers

Today I had the pleasure of meeting Ville Peltonen of the Florida Panthers...

Ville's sons Aleksi and Jesper play hockey for the Florida JR Panthers Squirt Major team. They are both big floorball fans so we thought we'd hook them up with some sweet Salming sticks!

Personally it was cool to meet Ville Peltonen as I will always remember him as one of the heroes who helped Finland clinch the Hockey World Championship in 1995. Finland beat our friendly rivals Sweden 4-1 in the final game with Ville notching a hat trick.

Enjoy the sticks guys! and let's try to get the JR Panthers playing some floorball as off-ice training...
