Aatu has been better in every level so far despite being the younger one and has noticeably higher potential and drives play more.

Aku is slightly smaller, less clever but with much better skating and motor. He is a workhorse/energy player who plays a straightforward brand of hockey. His strengths are 1on1 battles, forecheck and willingness to battle in the corners. He does have offensive potential too but he is more of a complimentary player.

Both have good shots and two-way game.

Thanks for the scouting report. I didn't know Aatu has a brother.

I wonder where these boys would have been if they didn't waste their first senior games at Kärpät... They both showed so much promise!
