He just needed to come to a complete stop, is all.
Tuukka seems to finally putting it together at Liiga level. He had surgery on both of his hips last summer and it took a bit of a time to recover.
His physical game and skating looks a lot better than before. Good numbers in juniors but he has always looked out of place at pro level until now.
3+1 in the last five games, all of the goals have been really nice too.
He was promoted to first line RW and 1st PP unit recently.

Surgery on both his hips at, what, 19 years old?
That doesn’t sound promising.

I hope this kid makes it with us someday just because he seems like he'd be a fun player to watch.

First 2 goals look almost identical, 3rd had the same cut-across from the left deke maneuver, but he finished from the other side
OT winner today, 8 points in last 5 games. He's looking better each game.

My god, he's really hot now and doesn't seem to be slowing down. Needs
Another year in Finland for sure imo after this one but he's a proper prospect for the future.

If anyone can read EliteProspects articles, have a go.

They probably are going to take the long road with all of their Euros. I mainly see next season being all about Bokk/Suzuki/Drury/Rees/Sellgren/Keane/Laffer for Chicago. Hopefully Blake Murray squeezes in, as well.

Fun fact, that’s a real girl with 3 boobs. She lives in Tampa. Her name is Jasmine Tridevil. I met her at a bar once when I lived down there

That’s her real name. Tampa had some characters. There was also the Ybor City Shoe Licker, who I encountered.

since we didnt have a prospect camp, I would like to get a couple of them into Chicago on a PTO. I can see Puistola needing the long route as he hasnt been strong in Liiga play. Tieksola has really taken the opportunity to show what is capable of. Assat isnt JYP bad but they are still in the bottom third of the league too.
A chicago roster of Bokk, Suzuki, Drury, Rees, Cotton, Tieksola, Murray, Mattheos, and 4 older prospects / AHL vets on offense
Sellgren, Honka, Keane, and 3 older prospects / AHL vets
That is pretty good with skaters. Assuming we have an extra a both leaves the possibility of adding another prospect or older player to each. I dont think it is too wild to consider adding Tieksola to the mix next season. Now if the CHL rule changes and we add Jarvis then, Tieksola could be the one left out.

He looked good in his quick stint in Liiga.
Needs to add some weight. Could add another dynamic Finnish playmaker for us. Although unlikely he would be a good addition to Chicago next season

You could add this guy and Bokk together and they'd still be skinner than one Peter Forsberg leg. I can just see Rod's face the first day in the gym with these two.

This ELC has a European Assignment Clause, like Kochetkov. This means that he likely stays in the Liiga for this coming season before coming to the AHL the season after. Good for him to get that ELC!
