Finland
Aleksanteri Kaskimäki
Gifted offensive center with strong skating and stickhandling. Needs to improve his defensive game and on-puck habits, but could be a top-six producer at the NHL level.
Emil Järventie
Skilled and energetic winger who lacks size and strength. Has the talent to develop into a top-nine winger in the NHL but will require proper development.
Patrik Puistola
Offensive winger with top-six upside. More of a goal-scorer but can also make plays.
Kasper Kulonummi
Well rounded puck-moving defenseman with good hockey sense and decision-making. Could eventually grow into a 2nd or 3rd-pairing puck-moving defender with powerplay usage at the NHL level.
Miko Matikka
Big-bodied power forward with a powerful shot and a solid offensive toolkit with good passing abilities. Injuries have slowed down his development, could be a good, versatile NHL player if he continues to develop.
Valtteri Puustinen
A speedy offensive winger with strong playmaking abilities. A very effective player on the power-play.
Aleksi Heimosalmi
A smooth-skating transitional defenseman who has gained more and more notoriety as his draft year has gone on. He brings a mobility and skill level that allows him to affect the game at both ends of the ice, Heimosalmi is an intriguing two-way defender with solid upside.
