There is no Eliteprospects page for him yet.
Birthdate: February 4, 2003
Scoring:
2015-2016:
D1(u14) A: 33+27=60 in 10 games played
C2(u15) AA: 22+36=58 in 24 games played
2016-2017:
C2 AAA lower Q: 29+46=75 in 16 games played
C2 AAA lower: 26+24=50 in 9 games played
B(u18) Alueliiga: 4+12=16 in 7 games played
A is lowest, AA second and AAA highest level for the age group. Also, Alueliiga is the 4th highest level for the age group.
What makes evaluating this prospect's scoring difficult is that he's not exactly been able to play at the highest level due to LJK being pretty terrible. Still, C2 AAA lower is not -so- far below C2 AAA upper that it's completely irrelevant, at least when his scoring is that good. When he scored 50 points in 9 games, his team scored a total of 72 goals and the #2 on his team in scoring had 19 points. So the easier opposition is likely at least partially balanced out by the team being terrible.
It's been almost impossible finding any kind of information on him, but I did manage to find one video from 2016 February where he was actually the captain of his C2 AA team, playing against a team composed entirely of 01s. After watching that entire game and seeing the amount of impact he was able to have in all game situations despite having just turned 13, I'm confident he'll become something great.
Using a sample size of one single game played a year and a half ago, his biggest strengths are in my opinion skating, vision, hockey IQ, calmness and swift and mature decision making. His defensive play was also spectacular considering the age.
Generally, players gain more exposure when they enter their u15 season so it's very likely that I'll have a better impression of how he plays(And hopefully how good he is against top tier competition) when the next season begins, but I figured I might as well make this thread now.
