Finland
Veeti Väisänen
A mobile, reliable defensive defenseman that plays an effective, simple game.
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.
Roni Hirvonen
An undersized forward with middle-six upside. Primarily a playmaker but can also finish. A natural center but has been used at wing at the men’s level. Great effort and good two-way game.
Leevi Merilainen
A super athletic netminder with tons of room to grow into his frame. If he continues to progress at his current pace, we could be looking at a solid starter at the NHL level.
Roby Järventie
A goal-scoring winger with great size and very good speed. A modern power forward who uses his size to protect the puck. Isn’t afraid to drive to the net. Owns a great shot and decent playmaking abilities. Has potential to become a top-six winger and a 30-goal scorer. Not a well-rounded player, so there is some risk involved as well.
Santeri Sulku
A moderately successful open-ice playmaker, Sulku possesses a lengthy frame in need of filling out and an overall skillset desiring considerable refinement.
Visa Vedenpaa
A tall, lanky net minder with good positioning skills.
Henrik Tikkanen
At 6-7, Tikkanen tops even the existing redwoods in North American pro hockey. He’s a bit light for that height at 201, but that probably helps him to be so agile for someone that huge. While his technique needs development and consistency, Tikkanen typically remains calm under fire and uses his size effectively. He doesn’t like to go down unless he has to.
Aleksi Heponiemi
Extremely talented and creative playmaker with high-end offensive upside. Capable of playing both center and wing, likely projects to be a winger at the NHL level. Loses value in multi-cat leagues because he doesn't really offer anything in peripheral stats.
Henrik Borgström
Middle-six center. Dual-threat because he can make plays and finish them as well. An offensive Swiss-Army knife.
