montreal said:Tukonen played on the team last year while Nokelainen and Korpikoski didn't, so I don't know what you mean by saying Nokelainen is on the junior team and the others aren't. All 3 will be there in decemeber I would think.

Nokelainen-Filppula-Bergenheim
Töykkälä-Immonen-Marjamäki
Tukonen-Kontiola-Oksa
Petrell-Piispanen-Nurmi
i apologize, Tukonen is on the team. teach me to believe hearsay.
Korpikoski...on which men's team?
anyway, my point was that Nokelainen is a soild prospect who gets little respect.
and JNR, stick it out your a**. a**hole.
ouch!
montreal said:It would help if you had your facts correct. Nokelainen has not played on the wjc team yet. He did take part in the tournament between Finland, Sweden and USA team A and team B. Tukonen was the only one of the three to play in the wjc's, as Nokelainen and Korpikoski were on the U-18 team last year. This year, I would expect all 3 to be on Team Finland's wjc team, but until they are officially on the roster, both Nokelainen have to make the team first. I doubt it will be a problem for either, but someone who follows the Finnish team can add more or correct anything wrong I've said, since I don't follow any of these players.
This is also a warnig for positing "a**. a**hole", which is not allowed on this site.

NYRangers posted that Korpikoski is on the 'mens team' ???
JNRHockeyGuru insulted me and I should've just called him an idiot instead of almost swearing.
isle-ike-it-alot said:I'm not sure, but I'm pretty certain that all three had 11 points in 6 games. I heard alot of Korpikoski and Tukonen, prior to the draft, but very little of Nokelainen.
Ya very good comparison only i like Chipchura a tad more due to his size and physical department. both will IMO great Thrid/Second line players.Russian_fanatic said:Chipchura got what Kesler got in the 2003 draft. They don't posses offensive talent or atleast not much, but they're GREAT(Imagine Tony the Tiger ) defensively.
