In the first ever Fantasy Turd League, the Saluky Turds have scored the first ever points.  Saluky Turd Jarkko Ruutu has been suspended for two games without pay, which will cost him $37,707 for an incident where he bit Buffalo Sabres Andrew Peters.  The force of Ruutu’s bite ripped Peters’ glove off, broke the skin and drew blood on the player’s right thumb.

Let’s review The Rules that Jarko Ruutu scored on:

• Ron Artest Rule: A player shall receive 1 point for every game he is suspended up to a maximum of 16 points per suspension. If the player is suspended during the playoffs or the suspension carries over into the playoffs, the same rules apply and 2 bonus points are awarded. Jarko Ruutu scored 2 points.
• Bill Romanowski Rule: If a player is fined by the team or league he plays for, that player shall receive points based on the dollar amount of the fine multiplied by .10% up to a maximum of 30 points. This rule also applies to a player getting suspended without pay where the fine equals the loss in salary. This rule does not apply to a player holding out.  Jarko Ruutu scored 3.7 points.

Total points scored = 5.7
