was hoping he would be doing a little better this season points wise but the only games I've gotten to see were the Champions league.

Maybe one reason for Ylönen's struggles with scoring
is that Pelicans has been very bad team this season.

Pelicans Lahti is 3rd last team in SM liiga right now
so it shouldn't be any surprise why Ylönen hasn't played so well.

If you compare Pelicans for last season they were playoff team
and now 3rd last team that's a huge drop.

Of course the problems what team has shouldn't affect on player and his game.
But what you can do when Ylönen sees his team losing every game what they play.
That's not easy situation to anybody.

And head coach is changed too because Ville Nieminen ( Former NHL player ) got fired in late November

I saw he was fired and they were disappointing at the Champions league but Ylonen is more or less been on pace with last year's numbers. He seems to be heating up now so we'll see if that sticks or not.

That is huge for Montreal. He signed his ELC, I imagine?

Goldenhands · Feb 28, 2020

Thats a prospect Im really high on, was great last year at the WJC, deceptively fast with very quick hands, good shot, can make plays at to speed since the hands follow the brain... Was playing on a jerk team in Liga and the N.A. style of play is perfectly suited for him, will have the chance to play with more skilled player and a higher paced game, you guys should hear alot about Ylonen in the next couple of weeks!!!

Agree with this that his skills should translate well to NA hockey. As long as he adjusts to the physicality he could be playing with Montreal sooner than later.

so he's not playing for Lahti today? I had figured he would be in Laval next year but wasn't sure what the Habs plans were. Very much looking forward to seeing how he does and Laval badly needs some bodies since the Habs keep taking their best players.

From what I read he is still under contract with Lahti and is therefore loaned to Laval.
He could then start his ELC only next year and hence not burn off a year.

Hostile Offer · Feb 28, 2020

Good for him to get out of that tire fire Pelicans team. With Evans and Hudon back up in Montreal any help up front is needed for Laval as they're still in the playoff hunt. Hope Ylönen does well.

Not yet.
Pelicans won't play SM liiga playoffs this season and their season has been over at least a month.
Ylönen didn't want to stay in Lahti so Pelicans let him go to AHL.

I also agree. I think he'll thrive in the N.A. type of game. When I saw him play I thought he would at the very least become a solid third liner because of how fast he is. If he becomes a bigger Byron than it'll be good for the habs.

I checked the boxscore and saw he wasn't playing, so has he left for Canada? Cause the local beat reporter for the Habs AHL team said he has to play in the 2 games today and tomorrow, which didn't make sense to me. Since he's not playing today, I assume he won't play tomorrow or for the final games so I assume he's on his way over to Canada already.

Artorius Horus T · Feb 29, 2020

Is he making his AHL debut tonight???. Anyone have info?

montreal · Mar 2, 2020

So he'll be getting to Laval tonight.

Canadiens announce loaning Jesse Ylönen to the Lahti Pelicans

Goldenhands · Sep 22, 2020

This kid will make some serious noise this year, easily one of the most underrated prospects out there... Kid can fly!!

montreal · Oct 30, 2020

Ylonen finally gets his first of the season,

montreal · Oct 31, 2020

hopefully he's heating up now,

montreal · Oct 31, 2020

There hasn't been much to say about his play so far this year but finally he's starting to produce and made a nice play on Friday,

NJ Fan 12 · Nov 13, 2020

Is there a reason he is scoring at a slower pace in his third Liiga season? Is he playing a smaller role or has he had some tough luck so far?
