...are the two highest career goal scorers from Finland in NHL history; Kurri with 601 and Selanne with 530 and counting. Who is third on the list? (And bonus points to the one that can tell me how many goals he scored)

Esa Tikkanen - 244 Goals is in Third place
Jere Lehtinen - 212 Goals Is the 4th place Finnish national
Tomas Sandstrom has more, but was only Born in Finland, he was a Citizen of and lived his whole life in Sweden, with Swedish Parents and played hockey for Sweden.
So kind of depends if you include that, but really, he was just kind of born on vacation.

I don't know, but Jarri Kurri didn't whine and complain like a female tennis player! If you touch Teemu he starts crying! I wish somebody would hit him hard and knock the rest of his teeth out!
