Certainly a hockey player. Some say still a young one.

 

[Gluten Free Breadman]

I love this kid.

 

[will1066]

One of the hockeyist players of all time, and at such a young age.

I'm still not sure what is going on with this picture. Are they pouring it into his eye?

Kinda scary since he is diabetic. Maybe it's a sugar filled drink to get his sugars back up?
Looks like he's about to pass the f*** out. I Know it's just a picture so who knows.

 

[will1066]

That picture is from last off-season, no?

 

[NYRFANMANI]

yeah, some music festival he went to with his chick.

I suppose as a Finn, Kakko knows how to party without dying.

Not exactly true. Finns die partying all the time -- but they also know how to come back from the dead!

The only genre of Finnish music is death metal. He's proving that one has to listen to death metal to truly feel alive.

Casual nose chug. I kid, but I knew a guy who snorted shots like a weirdo.

Laf thread getting all the attention. Big year ahead for KK? Did he attend any festivals this year? Any good coeliac recipes?

 

[Rongomania]

No more molly plz, though he did take a nice step after the pics were taken.

Hoping for the two way monster we're going to have for a decade to really bust out this year. Any pics floating around from the he and Rantanen usual summer bro down?

 

[Synergy27]

Yeah. What’s this fat bastard up to this summer?

 

[HockeyBasedNYC]

25-30-55 is the benchmark I have for him if he is playing top 6 min the entire season.

 

[GoAwayPanarin]

It'd be a start if the coach didn't start taking him off of lines that drive phenomenal results for no reason.

Panarin-Strome-Kakko and Kreider-Zibanejad-Kakko were both better lines than what ever dumb ass mix and match BS Quinn/Gallant ended up landing on.

 

[duhmetreE]

Lavi demands crashing the net/cleaning up rebounds.... If he gets Kakko to buy in he should have a very strong year

He's been jerked around like that in different ways, with little to no reason by Gallant and Quinn. I really hope it isnt the same bullshit with Lav.

Sitting him in the playoffs with no explanation was infuriating

And what, miss out on the kid line and their break even xG numbers?

 

[GoAwayPanarin]

Well better than break even but those other combos were like 56%+

But Panarin didn't like that for reasons and then Gallant broke up the other trio for no reason at all.

 

[PANARIN BREAD FAN]

laffy-zib-wheeler - maybe lavi tries this with a let's see what happens outlook for a few weeks.
bread-chytil-kaako - i think it's time for bread and chytil to be together full time. now or never.
kreider-trochek-xxx (tank?). one guy worth looking into maybe that guy from seattle - froden.

what are the other alternatives at rw that are available that has some skate speed and decent puck handling/shooting skills. froden-seattle let him go and signed yamamoto. that can't be good right?

 

[Harbour Dog]

If Kakko gets the shitty end of the stick again this year, I don't know if I'm going to be able to watch as many games as I usually do. Only so much self-sabotage I can watch before Netflix wins out.

The kid has deserved a reasonably long leash in the top6 since his second season. Trust him with bigger minutes, and I'd put money on him and Kreider being our two most important forwards in the playoffs.

Saw these online. Wtf?
