To play pre-season, you need to be signed, though, right?
No

I'm actually not sure.
They.fit.perfectlyI kind of expected us to take Nordgren instead of Harris just to go full Finn. On a serious note, I'd like to see him Lekhonen and Kotkaniemi as a line during preseason. The actual preseason.
Ylonen is bigger and a better skater at a minimum, Ikonen only really has a bettter shot.
I don't think we should give up on Ikonen, but there's a reason he was as a late 2nd rounder while Ylonen was an early one.

Has anyone seen him play? Is he really that fast, because the videos look impressive! He can stick handle too!
Yeah, he's fast. Maybe not the highest straight away speed like Mete or Kuznetsov, but he gets a lot of speed off his crossovers. He's nailed down the "linear" crossovers which all the cool kids are doing these days.
He does have great hands as well, with a good shot too. He has work to do, but the skill is there. Hoped we could have Berggren+Ylonen, but Im happy with him and Olofsson.
If he can be as good as Danault, it's a win
Its all about shift by shift videos, that will only gain more momentum in our "arm chair" scouting circlesThat's your website ?
Outstanding work. I'm going to be using it a ton next year, thanks.
There was nothing similar to the Draft Breakdown site for the NFL draft, so I thought I'd give it a go for the NHL. They do a lot of articles and draft rankings too but I'm just not there yet.
Thanks everyone! You guys definitely love your prospects, whenever a kid is drafted by the Habs the views spike drastically (especially my highlight channel).
Gives me some Blake Wheeler vibes. Not quite as big, but it's not like Wheeler uses that to impose himself physically on anyone either.
He has that same combination of acceleration, reach and vision to make plays at high speed down the RW. Just needs 4 years to fill out, much like Wheeler did.
Not a linemate per say, they played a few with the U18s last year. If Kakko's not on his wing for the WJCs we could see them together.Can someone clarify for someone ignorant on prospects; is this guy a linemate of our 3rd overall pick?
was watching some highlight vids of him, very impressed. I got burnt badly with being really high on flashy speedy skilled wingers in the past with Perezhogin, Collberg and Kristo but I won't learn my lesson. Would not be surprised if Ylonen is one of our best prospects by the end of next season.
Perezhogin was great, he kinda got stuck on that third line and then there was the stick swinging incident..
