Scouting Report
The Finnish defenseman was the 19th player taken in the 2019 NHL Draft largely because he has a big slap shot, which makes him useful on the power play, and moves the puck well. At 6’0", he is not likely to grow into a physical force in his own zone and will have to fill out, add strength and improve his consistency in the defensive zone to earn a regular spot on the blue line.
Long Range Potential: Big-shooting offensive defenseman.
