He’s been slowly creeping up my radar and exploded at the U18. He has the size & speed to make defenses back up and the shot to make them pay for it. He also has some sandpaper, like most Finns do.
I’m thinking someone might snag him up before #29 now.

Should definitely be in consideration with the Panthers pick. Big body with an absolute rocket of a shot
Am I a bad person in thinking we should stick with USNTDP players for our late 1st rounders and 2nd rounders for a while?
I feel like their development is exceptional as of late, and better than our past few picks from Liiga.
Love you Finland, but I think you stick to USNTDP while the deck is hot.
Holy cow – what a shot. Now I’m going to be disappointed if we don’t end up with him!
