Who is Antti Miettinen?

The Wild are three games into the season, and I keep hearing the same question over and over. Where did Antti Miettinen come from (it usually takes the asker 3-4 times to get "Miettinen" right)? It's a legitimate question, the guy leads the teams in goals scored already, with 5, which is actually tied for second in the league. Well, let's run through a few Antti Miettinen fun facts.

- Originally from Finland.

- Played in Dallas the last few years, where he tended to get 10-15 goals a season. Before that, he played with European powerhouse HPK, scoring around 25 goals a season.

- According to Wikipedia, he has two brothers, a sister and a cat. No word on the name or breed of the cat.

- Sort of looks like that guy who builds houses on "Extreme Makeover"

- Second Antti in Minnesota Wild history, after Antti Laaksonen

Now that you know a thing or two about Antti Miettinen, I have no doubt that he will become your favorite player.
