Finland
Otto Kivenmäki
Small but elusive winger with good puck handling ability. More of a set up man than a shooter, but he is a dual threat from the half wall on the power play.
Miska Kukkonen
A mobile defenceman who likes to join the rush. Sometimes decides to make risky plays with the puck
Antti Palojärvi
A mobile puck-moving defenseman who is great on the power-play, as he forechecks hard and possesses a strong shot.
Otto Leskinen
Average-sized puck-moving defender with upside to be a number four defenseman. Loves to join the rush and play the cycle game in the offensive zone. Smooth skater. Needs to improve his defensive game.
Niclas Almari
A defensive defenseman with little fantasy upside
Kevin Lankinen
A big game goalie who seems to raise his game in the playoffs.
Julius Nättinen
A goal-scoring winger with middle-six upside. Great size and a very good skater. Also owns soft hands and is a decent two-way player. Used to be a playmaking center but has re-invented himself since returning to Finland.
Oliwer Kaski
Offensive defenseman with great size. Despite his size, he doesn't play a physical style and instead relies on his positioning and stick-checking on defense. Loves to join the rush and create offense. Has a heavy and accurate slap shot, and he is capable of shooting from imperfect passes. His release on the wrist shot is extremely quick. He loves to shoot the puck as much as possible. Very dangerous on the power play. Needs to work on his defensive game and avoid unnecessary risks. A late-bloomer.
Markus Hännikäinen
Versatile player with scoring potential, a hard, accurate shot, and crafty defensive game.
Joona Koppanen
Koppanen has a large frame but lacks the offensive talent to become a truly impactful player for fantasy purposes. Likely tops out as a role-playing forward in the NHL.
