Great speed and effort level everytime I've seen him play. He lacks skill to be top end prospect though.

Another Rasmus Kupari?
Not really. Kupari has good hands and shot compared to Myllylä. Also I don't think Myllylä has never been close to be first round pick. He is also a winger. The only similarities with these two are that they are both good skaters, although Myllylä's skating style is similar to Wheeler which means he is more explosive skater than Kupari.

If Myllylä turns out to be skilled enough, he will be amazing 3th/4th line player in NHL since he gives 100% every shift and is great at playing the grind game.

From what I have seen, Myllylä does not have the greatest hockey sense, but he's a hard-worker who battles hard in each and every shift. Strong in puck pursuit. Skating is his biggest asset and he's got a decent shot, too. Definitely not in the same tier talent-wise as Kupari, but he could get drafted if he shows development next season.

After destroying jr A mestis, I really have high hopes for this kid this season. Promising start!

Leads now the Finnish 2019 draft class in goal scoring with 11 goals in 20 games.

Edit. In Jr A SM-liiga I mean. Patrik Puistola has 13 goals in total, 4 in Mestis and 9 in Jr A.
