I haven't seen Patrik Siikanen in the JYP lineup lately. Is he injured, sick, playing elsewhere or just being healthy scratched?

Liiga teams getting some nice reinforcements before playoffs. I wonder what happens now with the KHL. Players likely don't want to go there as much as before, is Liiga going to get better? People might say that the players will go to SHL or NLA but those leagues can't hire everyone. The market could be flooded with good players, especially if other European and North American players start to avoid KHL.

who do you guys have as gold favorites? HIFK have a good roster

HIFK lost their starting goalie recently and even with the additions in their lineup, they have had troubles scoring lately. They need to get their shit together and I am doubtful they will. I am guessing that Kärpät wins 'cos they have a well balanced team and they have played a boring but winning style of hockey lately.

I must say the first round of playoffs have good matchups. HIFK-TPS is pretty legendary and Ilves-Kärpät should be a close one. I expect that Lukko wins against HPK and thus play against Tappara in the first round. So the current champ Lukko against the regular season winner Tappara, sounds good. Then Jukurit against either KooKoo or Pelicans is a bit meh in comparison and I expect Jukurit to beat either team easily. Cool to see them in playoffs though.

They have stacked offense but goaltending is not resolved. Tappara has really strong team and I see them as favorites. Their goaltending with addition of Kalnins better than most competitors and they've recorded 12 shutouts during the regular season.

kalnins was horrible in shl

I don't think Kalnins is projected starter but added for depth and Jokerit background probably helps as well. Heljanko has so far posted 9 of those 12 shutouts.

Kärpät and IFK out already in quaterfinals. Thats suprising.

Looks like it will be TPS vs Tappara in the finals.

 

[Eye of Ra]

Oh, Sport have brought in 2 swedes, Simon Hjalmarsson and Jens Lööke for next season. 2 good adds.

Can't be worse than Karlkvist, I suppose.

 

[Jersey Fan 12]

Any thoughts on HPK goalie Daniel Lebedeff? Had mediocre numbers in two seasons at the University of Wisconsin (when in fairness the team wasn't very good) but had his best numbers to date this past season as a 22-year-old.

Is there anything to see or did HPK only play him against the weaker opponents?

Received contract from the Wild. Was that a result of strong play or more a reflection of a lack of depth in the Minnesota organization?
