Prospect Info: Jesse Ylönen - Part 2

[Maitz]

Well his 2 goals are scored in the Ovy spot on the PP, the same positioning as Caufield. They will battle for that spot on the Habs in couple of years.

I would think Caufield is first wave and Ylonen would be the second wave.

Now the question is, do you split Suzuki and Kotkaniemi on the PP, too? Because if Suzuki is on the right half-wall setting up Caufield, you'd think Kotkaniemi would be one the right half-wall on the next wave setting up Ylonen?

Or do you put KK with Suzuki and Caufield on the first wave regardless?

 

[Le Barron de HF]

Glad to see him and Lesk are off to good starts. I like Ylonen, maybe he can become a Rust for us.

Suzuki at the point, KK on right half wall, Caufield left. Holloway/Reichel in the bumper spot with Norlinder at opposite point.

it's the first preseason game though, let's see how he looks after a few games into the season.

I just want to see or hear that he actually looks better i.e. stronger, more confident with the puck, showing more creativity, etc.

if i keep finding streams i'll certainly post what i see

 

[Supersonic]

If he can end up as a decent middle 6 RW with hands who can contribute on PP2, i’m pumped

That's the ticket, really.. although I just say top 9 because we are in a cap world and a guy with Ylonen's profile can absolutely go on a top line and provide a role for that line as well.

big time. a PP specialist who can't hurt you on a 3rd line would be nice. We can actually use that.

Im a person who believed your first wave have to be lethal and stay on the ice for 1:20-1:30 min. I would think Caufield-KK-Ylonen Weber-Suzuki could be pretty good.

Meanwhile, I find it encouraging that Ikonen is inching back to a promising forward. There is still time for him to rekindle his pro career. We need the influx of talent at his position.

 

[26Mats]

Why are so many of you getting sidetracked into a Drouin vs Lehkonen discussion?
You must just love to argue. Pure Mark Twain ("Never argue with a fool...").

what makes you say Ikonen is inching back to a promising forward?

Jesse Ylonen reprend où il l’a laissé l’an dernier | Excellente performance offensive à son retour au jeu

Was pretty good I would say (2 goals). Can't wait to see him in the AHL.

are you mixing up Ylonen and Ikonen cause there don't seem to be any reports on Ikonen being healthy

Yes, I conflated the two. Rather, it was a typo.

Pelicans playing their final pre-season game today at 11:30 ET.

Ylonen at 2RW like he was last game:

You have to marvel at how perfect his skating is on a technical level, notably his turns and his acceleration. Mobility will never be a problem with this kid.

it's the first thing that stood out to me in his first preseason game the other day, he was moving real well out there.

 

[Goldenhands]

Ylonen with the Caufield special on the PP, lethal wrister... Another goal... His shot clearly reached another level...

 

[montreal]

PP goal Ylonen!

 

[FrankMTL]

He's on fire so far doing this pre-season. Would be nice to see what he can do in the AHL.

 

[Goldenhands]

Another snipe, 2nd goal of the game! Too easy scoring goals for this kid lol.... 4 goals so far in 4 periods of hockey, ridiculous...

 

[montreal]

he's killing it on the PP, he had 12 goals in 53 last year and gets 4 in his first 2 preseason games, hopefully that carries over to the regular season and then to Laval.

 

[Goldenhands]

This kid can do it all on the PP, can gain the zone with ease carrying the puck, can pass, can snipe, he is so fluid and dynamic out there... At even strength, he needs a bit of work in his zone zone but nothing major here, Bouchard will have a fun time to teach this kid...

Im epecting Ylonen to be a force for Laval offensively and eventually get a regular spot on the Habs, possibly in the 2nd part of the next season..

 

[montreal]

ok I figured out what was wrong,



but that cause me to miss his 2nd goal
