| March 10, 2016 | Ruutu missed Thursday's win in San Jose with an undisclosed injury. | The Devils play next on Saturday in Los Angeles. |
| March 9, 2016 | The NHL has fined New Jersey Devils forward Tuomo Ruutu $5,000 for kicking the legs out from under Pittsburgh forward Matt Cullen. | Ruutu was issued a minor penalty for tripping after he ''slew-footed'' Cullen early in the third period of Pittsburgh's 6-1 win on Sunday. |
| Jan. 8, 2016 | Ruutu returned to action in Thursday's game at Colorado. | The veteran wing had missed three games with a lower-body injury. |
| Dec. 29, 2015 | Ruutu remains out because of an illness. | He should return soon but isn't a fantasy option regardless. He has zero points in eight games. |
| Oct. 18, 2015 | Ruutu is set to return "any day." from a broken foot. | The veteran forward's injury has kept him out since Oct. 16. |
| Jan. 13, 2015 | Ruutu is out because of the flu. | He's been placed on injured reserve, so he'll be out until after the All-Star break. |
| Sept. 30, 2013 | Carolina placed Ruutu on injured reserve. | Ruutu is suffering from a lower-body injury. |
| April 19, 2013 | Ruutu scored twice in Thursday's 4-3 overtime loss at Winnipeg. | Ruutu had scored just once over his previous 28 games dating to last year. |
| March 31, 2013 | Ruutu had two assists in a 3-1 win over Winnipeg on Saturday. | Ruutu has played in just four games this season, but has three assists in his last two. |
| March 21, 2013 | The Carolina Hurricanes have activated Ruutu from the injured non-roster list and claimed former first-round draft pick Zach Boychuk off waivers. | The team also placed defenseman Joe Corvo on injured reserve retroactive to March 16 as part of a series of moves announced Thursday before its game against New Jersey. Ruutu will make his season debut after sitting out since having hip surgery in December. The physical forward had 18 goals and 16 assists last season. |
| Jan. 13, 2013 | Ruutu played his first game of the season for the Hurricanes on Thursday. | Ruutu, who had hip surgery in December, skated for nearly 15 minutes. |
| Feb. 22, 2012 | The Carolina Hurricanes have agreed to a four-year, $19 million contract extension with forward Tuomo Ruutu. The deal will pay Ruutu $4 million next season and $5 million in each of the next three years in a deal that runs through the 2015-16 season. He would've been an unrestricted free agent after this season. | The 29-year-old Ruutu is second among Hurricanes skaters with 17 goals and fourth with 30 points in 57 games. He has 80 goals and 107 assists in 289 games with Carolina since being acquired from Chicago in February 2008. |
| Feb. 14, 2012 | The Hurricanes say they expect Ruutu to miss three weeks with an unspecified upper body injury. | The team on Wednesday called up forward Jerome Samson from its AHL affiliate in Charlotte on an emergency basis to replace Ruutu. Ruutu was injured in the first period of a 5-3 victory at Montreal on Monday night and did not return. He has a team-best 17 goals and is tied for second on the team with 30 points. |
| Jan. 13, 2012 | Ruutu added a goal and two assists, and the Hurricanes beat the Tampa Bay Lightning 5-2 on Thursday night. | Ruutu has 15 goals in 45 games. He found the back of the net 19 times in 82 games last season. |
| Dec. 27, 2011 | Ruutu scored for the third time in as many games during Monday's 4-2 win over New Jersey. | Ruutu has come on strong of late. He has six goals and two assists over his last nine games. |
| Nov. 13, 2011 | Ruutu scored twice during Saturday's 5-3 win over Pittsburgh. | While he has three goals over his last two home games, Ruutu doesn't hold a ton of fantasy value at this point. |
