"Good player,’’ said a longtime Swedish scout. "And a very bright kid. If he wanted, he could probably be a doctor. I just don’t think he wants to play in the NHL. I don’t think it matters to him, really. He’s sort of a prince over there, playing in a smaller league, and I guess that’s OK with him.’’
So Toivonen is back on a cheap two-way deal (fine), but the salient quote for me was a scout talking about Carl Soderberg, the Swedish prospect the Blues originally gave up for Hannu Toivu Crazy-u Goalie-u. I know this was always the word on Carl, but it's funny to see it spelled out.

Ahhh, he's just bored.
Perhaps he needs a CamTits to go after him to raise his headache level.
