Aku Koskenvuo

February 2024 – After not seeing much ice time last season, Koskenvuo has been given a significantly larger role with Harvard this season. The tall goaltender has appeared in 12 games, posting numbers that, while not the most impressive, are decent for a rookie in the league. With three wins, a 3.35 goals-against average, and a .902 save percentage, Koskenvuo leads in almost every goaltending statistic for his team. This kind of season could indeed serve as a stepping stone for his road to the NHL. Cedrick Blais-Turcotte

May 2023 – As expected, Koskenvuo made his journey to Harvard University and saw nearly no games throughout the year. He allowed eight goals and split his starts with a 1-1-0 record. He also saw two starts for team Finland at this year’s WJC, but failed to pick up a win, allowing nine goals. The 20-year-old netminder continues to carry intriguing NHL-potential qualities, but it’s too soon to get a gauge on his timeline. Check back soon. Dave Hall

May 2022 – Koskenvuo enjoyed split action duties in his second year with HIFK of the U20 circuit. Over 27 games, he posted a 13-10-0 record, with a .897 save percentage and two shutouts. The 6-4 netminder is still considered a very raw talent but showcases inspiring attributes that show promise down the road. He will cross the pond for the 2022-23 season, where he has committed to Harvard (NCAA) and will again battle for a starting role. He is considered a long-term prospect, but certainly, one to keep close tabs on. Dave Hall

August 2021 – Koskenvuo was selected 137th overall by the Vancouver Canucks. He is slated to cross the pond and suit up for Harvard University for the 2021-22 campaign. Dave Hall
