Yep, agree.
Excellent player... thats about it isnt it?
Does he give back in Quebec? I dunno, may be he is a nice person, but who wins that series dont really care, Isles maybe i pull for but not because of the coach.
They have him at 81st, so a NHL long shot depth player am assuming.
81. Aatos Koivu, C — TPS (U20 SM-Sarja)
Anni Karvinen – Aatos Koivu is a strong-skating center that has had a steep development curve during the season. He is physically quite raw which partly explains why he flew under the radar for so long. Koivu possesses a plus tool in his shot that he likes to fire frequently, especially from the half-wall. He also has a quite good hockey sense especially in the offensive zone where he is good at
making himself available as an option to pass the puck to. He can play responsible two-way hockey and he’s already developed some mature habits like good scanning.
I was happy when Caufield was picked and i guess this guy is supposedly a similar-type sniper, but not hoping Habs pick him.
Prelim games U18s start tomorrow, TSN i think is airing Canada games.
Iginla & Greentree i guess are 2 top prospects playing.
Not sure who is on USA/Sweden
