Talk:Jani Rita
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
[edit] Signing in Finland
Can anyone confirm if this deal has an exit clause if he makes the Oilers? --Scimitar parley 19:50, 8 August 2005 (UTC)
- In an interview back in June for the Jokerit official website, www.jokerit.com, Rita said he had definitely decided to play for Jokerit next season. From that and other statements I have the impression that he doesn't have an exit clause and won't be playing in North America next season. Elrith 01:43 9.8.05

- Too bad. I was hoping to see him line up full-time with Edmonton. --Scimitar parley 19:28, 9 August 2005 (UTC)
- This is odd: Rita signed by Oilers --Scimitar parley 19:43, 10 August 2005 (UTC)
- Nah, just disappointing for those of us on this side of the Atlantic. =( Rita used the NHL clause in his contract and he'll be entertaining you guys next season. So yes, he _did_ have an exit clause. Seems my memory isn't what it used to be... Elrith 20:16 11.8.05
