Another one from my hometown team! He's a potential steal, really like his game.

He will have to help fill a portion of Aho's shoes next year with Karpat. Will be interesting to see what he does with the opportunity. Hopefully this is an Aho 2.0 situation, similarly Kuokkanen is also one of the youngest players in his Draft.

As a Finn it will be really hard not to cheer for the Canes and I am just gonna cheer for you guys lol no reason not to :) Get a Finnish goalie and you are practically set for a long time ;)

How do we pronounce this?

Exciting pick. Like it a lot. Between him and Gauthier, it more than makes up for the head-scratcher pick of Bean in the first.

I like him a lot, his sneaky style to play is something that Finns don't have quite often. You don't know what he'll do, shoot or pass. He is gonna be a steal.

I'm predicting, in a very Canes like fashion, that he becomes our best player from this year's draft. We should trade all of our firsts for second rounders in the future.

If you are gonna love Aho, certainly you gonna love Kuokkanen too. Damn Canes will be stacked and contender soon.

Just in center debt. I'm speechless.
