Hurricanes' Tarmo Reunanen: Moving back to Finland

Reunanen signed a contract with Lukko of the Finnish Liiga on Wednesday, Patrick Williams of NHL.com reports.

Reunanen was traded to the Hurricanes in March in a minor-league deal, but he struggled to adjust with AHL Chicago. The 24-year-old will now head back to his native Finland. The Hurricanes can retain his NHL rights by extending him a qualifying offer.
