Top Finnish propects of the SM-Liiga teams

While searching the all knowing Finnish ice hockey pages Jatkoaika. I ran into a message thread conserning the future prospects of the SM-Liiga teams. I think you'll most probably find it intresting as it will get longer and longer:

The thread already contains a lot of information that you can find in English from other sites, but also about players of a-junior and b-junior age.
Most of these guys can analyze the players really well (much better than I can). I think me and the rest of the Finnish speaking guys on the board can help you understand the language, if you find something worth of translating.

Not much debate there yet. Mostly few JYP-guys are talking about playing rights.

At the moment covered were Kärpät, JYP, Jokerit, Blues and Ässät (and a little Tappara). I hope more writers will contribute...

Are there any Kovalchuk/Nash/Ovechkin/Crosby-level prospects in Finland right now?

Don't you think you would have heard of them by now?

I meant from the younger age groups like 87 or 88?

So is he anything like Kovalchuk or the young Selanne?
