bruh if we could get consultants and coaches from the Finnish hockey program to teach the Leafs how to play a wicked team first system, they'd be unstoppable.

In the meantime, we just need to load the Leafs up with as many Finns as possible.

That would Finish the team.

I think the scouting report said he's got a bit shot and plays a decent 2 way game. Not a flashy skating puckhandler who gives it up behind like a regular jake gardiner.

Just what I heard.


Also he's Finnish

- TheMussel


Yeah that's another thing, people see the points and they think Barrie and Gardiner.

I think he is going to score a lot of goals as a D man but I dont think he will be lighting up the assists like an O d man does.

I don't think he's going to get a lot of points.

As a non-expert who hasn't seen him play much at all, my guess is that he doesn't produce points as a result of flash but as a result of solid fundamentals. Probably translates to less production in NHL?

Like I said though, I know less than nothing about him.

Yeah I am going based of what scouts and agents are saying about him.

Kinda like a Jeff Petry, not saying he will be his talent level...but a smart player with a good shot leads to goals. Won't be creating a ton of offence however.

He has a lethal shot...one that doesn't take an hour to load up like he who shall not be mentioned.

He’s trying to debunk superstition...the power that all pro athletes come to respect.

Hopefully we’ll get to see him play. I’m just looking for a unicorn...an NHL level Dman we can’t make fun of.

Jake Muzzin says hi

Yeah but the Leafs do need some emerging talent out of the Lehtonen, Sandin, liljregren, Dermott crop. Elite teams have players like that pop up into their top 4s out of no where.

My money is on Sandin, from that group. But it's going to take a while until he develops some man strength. We need to still give both him and Liilygrin more time. Remember how the Leafs gave up too soon on Anton Stralman - that guy has had a damn good career.

I know, but Kari Lehtonen is 37 now, he's had a pretty decent NHL career

Seems like Lilly has been around here forever...so long that it feels like we should probably just give up on him. But he’s still only 21. Feels like he should be Holl’s age.
