Okay so he's lived in Finland, played there, his dad works in Finland, mom's Finnish, he's been on the Finnish national team but because he played 1 game of AA Bantam in Canada 3 years ago "chances are pretty high he feels a lot more Canadian"?

Joonas Donskoi avi but not a SEA fan ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Such a crazy move from him versus IFK, he's nuts
I have to say, he might be the most talented finnish 15 year old that I’ve ever seen

You can move the puck backwards as long as you are moving forward in shootout.

A bit OT, but its Lambert's luck that hockey's and floorball's rulebook are not completely similar.
Barkov better. Lambert will be new Barkov to Finland. Pick nro 2 in draft too.
2019: Kakko 1.
2020: Lundell 2.
2021: Räty TOP3
2022: Lambert TOP3
Sounds good.

To be the best player.
Please don't tell me the draft spots are already locked up 3 years before the draft.
I dont know hes story just figured if he lived in Canada from birth to 2016, and hes parents moved to Finland, he starts to play there. And now two years later he will play finnish national team. But ofc I have no idea really. If he just lived in Canada for 1 year, That I dont know.. Heck I dont even know if he talks finnish or english.
He played in Canada for one season and he speaks Finnish and English. He is a Finnish boy with a Canadian father, end of story.

He speaks perfect Finnish from what I read in an interview about him.
I just confirmed what others have said.

So?
I’m like 99,99% sure the kid won’t choose Canada. He has a ton of friends in the finnish natty team, why would he wanna play with random kids?

Perhaps, it's his choice. He is a dual citizen however, born while his Canadian father was involved in hockey in Finland. He would be within his rights to identify as a Canadian.
yeah for sure! Just really don't see it happening. I honestly think this kid is the most talented Finn ever, his skating, hands, passing, vision and IQ are all through the roof. The kid is dominating against guys 5 years older than him in the toughest league in Finland, just needs to start producing.

Yup, he has that really electrifying vibe that I think players like Mackinnon have, kid could really become a star if all goes right.
