Prospect Info: 122nd Overall 2024 Draft, LHD Aron Kiviharju

Yeah, so who cares?

I don’t think it matters where he plays. He will likely be a bust regardless of where he goes.

That's the case for everyone from the 3rd round on... doesn't mean we can't hope for otherwise.

If you don't care, you can just ignore the thread and let those who do care have their discussion.

Have I broken a forum rule?

You asked who cares, I responded, then you reiterated "so, who cares"

Others obviously care despite you not caring

He made his decision on where to play already. So caring about where he is going to play is a pointless conversation.

Yet, if people want to discuss it, they're free to do so

I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but basically every conversation on HFboards is pointless by that metric, as no one here has any operational power. My favorite example is the trade forum, where everyone speaks as though they actually can accept or decline a trade.

But, in regards to having opinions, it's nice to be able to voice them, and maybe learn something if we keep our minds open to the opinions of others. Easier said than done for me, but alas.

Let's just keep kicking the can.
No matter what, his career is going somewhere.
Hopefully he can be a D-man in Iowa in the future and get a game or two in the NHL.

I always try to think of it in the "what would I do" sense, and not try and predict Guerin's moves, because I know I'd probably be wrong 90% of the time.

And I can comment who cares…

It doesn’t matter where he goes between the CHL or Liga. It’s up to him to develop his skills. Who knows, we may get lucky with him being a top 4 guy in Iowa

We may also get lucky with him and he turns into the next Brian Rafalski and be a very good top pair d-man on a cup caliber team

Or somewhere in between!

You and me both, Doc.

Guess he should play for Wisconsin then, if he really wants to follow in the footsteps of that Badger legend.

Any updates on him? A quick glance at his stats appear to be promising?

@Puhis had a nice writeup on him in the prospect thread.

Rumour in TigerTown is that Ryder Ritchie travelled back to be with the Minnesota's team doctors. He took a skate to the face that missed his eye, but sounds like he got a wicked nasty cut. He's been out of the lineup for 3 weeks in Medicine Hat and hasn't played since.

I think Kiviharju has played 3 more games since then and is on a 5 game point streak.
