He's 6'4. Probably was one of the tallest people left. They probably didn't care where he was playing.

Thats probably one of the most heartbreaking (sports-wise) things you can hear at that age. "Yo here is the team that wants to give you a chance to fullfill your dream. We have no f***ing clue who you are. But you big."

Haven't seen him but this is a reasonable profile to draft in the 7th round. Hard to trust their overall process though.

Going to play in Sweden next year which is a bit odd.

There's nothing wrong with this pick on paper, which is all I can speak towards. But tell me with a straight face the Flyers didn't have a size agenda this draft. Brent Flahr is clapping like a seal at a job well done.

It does say he's a dual citizen, and he played in the Brynas organization in the u16s.

There is some uncertainty with Jokerit because they left the KHL, wonder if that had something to do with it. Although, their junior system always remained in Finland

They usually get loaned out to different Finnish clubs though and stay in the Finnish system. But as Magua said, he has played in Sweden before.

Also a bit odd he didn't rep Finland at either u18 event this year.

Not a single cute player to be found.

Can someone tell me if this is him? 😂

I dunno if it is or not, but is that clip supposed to be impressive or something? I saw better rollerblading hockey skills from randos in the movie Airborne in the early 1990s. Can't he be rollerblading down a stadium ramp or jumping a truck or something?

Is there any info on how far he can drive a golf ball? I am assuming that, as a European, he is automatically amphibian, which is very athletic.

Seems like he hasn't played any hockey this season?

Hasn’t been confirmed but legal issues apparently.
