Jarmo Ruutu possibly out 6 to 8 weeks?

After two high-scoring games against Malmo Nighthawks, Moscow Menace players were ordered to come in for early morning practice on Sunday. The theme of the practice was defense. Almost everybody managed to come into the practice, but one player was missing: Jarmo Ruutu. The whispers around the training rink suggest the Finnish forward hurt his back while helping the general manager move his belongings into the new office. If we are to believe those who have been in the office of the general manager, the heaviest and most likely object to cause an injury is the antique gaming chair that is reportedly as heavy as a dinner table made from solid oak.

 

It is believed the chair is the GM's lucky chair, but for everyone else, the chair is starting to have the opposite effect.  Last month, while cleaning the office, a cleaner accidentally tripped on the chair, and while falling down their brand new iPhone 15 Pro Max flew out of the open window. The phone was never recovered, but the general manager reportedly gave the cleaner one of his own to compensate for the loss.

 

There has not been any official confirmations on whether Jarmo Ruutu is able to play in the game against LA, but at least on Sunday, the Finnish center was not seen on the ice or at the gym.
