That’s serious

 

[Sens of Anarchy]

Lets hope this kid is the real deal

 

[Dan Patrick]

Lets hope this kid is the real deal

Can't wait to see how he does in the men's league next year. Goalies are voodoo and he's likely another two years from even coming to NA but you can't complain about his numbers so far!

 

[OD99]

So early but being that far ahead of your peers is impressive.

 

[aragorn]

That’s serious

Watch this guy who no one had ever heard of & were making fun of during the draft, me included could end up being the best goalie in their system. ..... hahaha ..... That would be great actually!

Love Greig as a prospect but that was a bad hit, lucky he didn't get more games even in a shortened season. I'm sure he'll come back fired up.

 

[Sun God Nika]

Finland produces great goalies
Rinne
Rask
Lehtonen
Raanta
Saros
Niemi

off the top of my head. Lets hope Levi gets in that group of talent.

I wonder if a CHL team might want to bring this guy over. I think it'd be a good move for him NHL prospects.

Yeah but will he want to do that.

 

[Alf Silfversson]

Yeah but will he want to do that.

If he's serious about playing in the NHL it would not be a bad idea.

Lots of Euro goalies never come play CHL and are serious about making it...I don't get this post, he may be able to play against men as early as next year. Going CHL seems like a step backwards.

I never said it was NECESSARY. I said it wouldn't be a bad idea. Playing in NA is lot different than Europe, especially for goalies.

Yeah he's probably better off playing in Finland. Hopefully play in Mestis next season and eventually in Liiga before coming over to NA.

lol wtf?

Goalies man.,.. Especially junior aged goalies .. I don't know they can look like they are the second coming then fall off a cliff where you think they will never recover, then they climb the mountain again and they are great .. So hard to know what you have.

 

[OD99]

I never said it was NECESSARY. I said it wouldn't be a bad idea. Playing in NA is lot different than Europe, especially for goalies.

I didn't imply you did say it was NECESSARY.

I said it would seem like a step backwards based on options he probably will have.

The net and crease are the same so I don't think goalies have the largest adjustment either although yes the dimensions of the ice surface are different.

 

[Alf Silfversson]

Yeah he's probably better off playing in Finland. Hopefully play in Mestis next season and eventually in Liiga before coming over to NA.

Personally I would prefer, in terms of development, CHL -> AHL ->NHL to U-20 ->Mestis -> Liiga ->AHL ->NHL.

Not saying there is a right or wrong way but plenty of European players who could play in pro leagues (or even have played) in Europe choose to go the CHL route.

 

[Slippy]

Too be fair, it was only a couple years ago that goalies were made eligible for the import draft, so for a long time it was never an option.

I think there are pros and cons both ways. Playing against older more experienced players can be a good reason to stay in Europe, but getting used to the angles and difference of play on the smaller ice surface could be valuable in CHL.

 

[Xspyrit]

Lots of time for Meriläinen, let him play in Europe a few years then come over to NA (AHL) around 21-22 y/o

Why would you want Lodin to play with grinders? I mean, compared to him. This feels like another McDavid not surrounded well enough

lol wtf?

Yeah, Lodin will need players able to play to his speed level. Pastrnak, MacKinnon, McDavid? (of course they'd all be wingers in Ottawa)

Definitely would prefer Liiga -> AHL -> NHL to CHL -> AHL to NHL. Liiga has produced a lot of high end goalies.
