Interesting...

 

[TLeafsFan]

He's a goalie and we needed one. I'll look into him as I'm sure many will here now.

6'3" Finnish goaltender? I'm on board.

Looks decent. Another free wallet

 

[Pyrophorus]

@Kaskisuo get ready.

 

[TLEH]

He's actually pretty good. played in the best conference in the NCAA. Big guy.

 

[The Examiner]

I've never heard of him but it looks like he's a team mate of Toninato and Cameranesi. I guess they got some good looks at him. His stats look good but I'm not really sure how they compare to other college guys.

His name sounds Japanese. It amazes me how Finnish and Japanese names can be so similar.

We didn't even sign our own guys out of Duluth.

Good size and stats. I've never seen him play but those are a great combination to have especially with so few goalies in the leafs system

 

[Paradoc]

Never heard of him, but it never hurts getting a free wallet.

 

[Kurtz]

So did we not sign the male model goalie then?

Sadly no AHL playoffs for him.

Still saying draft Hart too.

 

[Doug Gilmour]

Interesting. Leaving Finland at that young of a age to play in North America tells you he wants to play in the NHL. Good for him.

Im hoping we sign them both, then I'd also approve if they drafted one. Finding an above average starting goaltender is hard, take the shotgun approach.

Adios stalock!

It was adios Stalock anyways. UFA plus Sparks will be back for the playoffs.

Yup, but the tweet from leafspr states that the contract starts next season, so he won't play this season.

 

[FlareKnight]

Hey, we needed more goalies so this is fine. Gotta keep searching for future solutions so I'm fine with this.

 

[The Examiner]

Which strengthens my point?

Unless you mean that we were definitely not going sign him as an UFA. I doubt they would have anyways.

Quesque c'est?

 

[Peace Frog]

The only highlight I can find on this guy, is his behind the back save (which was pretty cool though).
