"Flahr has done a great job"

The extent of scouting done on him was seeing his listed height

Brought to you by the same organization that squawks endlessly about CULTURE.

 

[Don Nachbaur 26]

Jeez, hasn't played at all this year. This organization man...

So Bill is saying he was injured this year?

Santeri Sulku (W/C, 2022 Draft, 7/197) The Finnish born, Finnish and Swedish trained teenager was selected by the Flyers with their final pick of the 2022 NHL Entry Draft. Slated to play in Sweden this season for Modo's J20 team, Sulku missed the entire season due to injury.

I thought it was serious legal trouble that kept him off the ice?

Either way, now I realize why we used to trade all of our 7ths to Montreal.

 

[Appleyard]

From what I understand he is without a team right now.

MoDo J20 have played 3x pre-season games and he has not been involved in any. And I believe his contract was only 1-year, so would have expired this summer.

I might be wrong as could not directly confirm, but that seems most likely as things stand.

I can't find anything except Charlie's 2022 Dev Camp story saying: Seventh-round draft pick Santeri Sulku also is dealing with an injury (jumper’s knee), but it’s not believed to be especially serious — there was just little reason to push him to be an active participant at camp and risk further injury. What I'm hearing on Oskar Lindblom, Flyers prospect injuries and development camp

Bill said this on Hockeybuzz: "Injured and didn't play at all this past season. He was in Sweden with Modo's junior team but was unable to play"

Can someone tell me if this is him?

Can anyone confirm if this is where the injury occurred?

While Modo never sent out any confirmation of the fact, their statement when the verdict came was that if it stood after any appeals they would terminate the contract.

So I'd be inclined to say that he was not
part of their organisation at all last season.

ya i did some digging and sounds pretty serious

 

[deadhead]

Allegations of sexual assault, but if he's been cleared to play this year . . .

This is on your European scout(s) to do the leg work, obviously, no one in NA would have a clue.

your a reporter no?

First goal in 3 games with Kokkola. Time to pass the bong.

If you hit on one 7th rd pick a decade, you're doing great.

Just playing some NHL games is a hit with a 7th rounder. Wyatt Kalynuk did and our favourite Russian goalie Fedotov might’ve. Some have hopes for Gendron and McLaughlin, I’d say we are 7th round geniuses! Your turn on the bong.
