Small minority but prefer this pick to demidov. Sakus my captain.

 

[SwiftyHab]

Calgary is jealous that we pulled the nepotism off!

 

[Eegs]

Could this draft be any more likeable?

This is automatically a good pick and will be one of my favorites no matter what.

Give him #11

 

[The Great Weal]

Not going to pretend that I know enough about him to have a valid opinion, but do we even draft him if he wasn't Saku's son?

Time to finally change my avatar

 

[Sam de Mtl]

Cool story. I don't know if he will be anything, but it's a feel good pick.

 

[BLNY]

An interesting pick. There were some bloggers predicting this selection.

Aatos had a really nice second half in league play but an underwhelming U18.

 

[Habs]

I like it, I don't know much about the late prospects but he seems like a really good player. Seeing a Koivu on a jersey again would be so rewarding

 

[ArtPeur]

I don't care if he's a bust

 

[Le Tricolore]

I'm so happy right now. I really hope Aatos pans out and becomes a good NHL'er.

Good this draft be any more likeable?

Yeah this is fan service to the max. I love it.

We were saying more or less the same thing about florian exactly one year ago

 

[blarneylad]

listed at 6'1"...if he can have his dad's drive and vision he could be a top 6 player!

 

[le_sean]

Nice story but don’t care for the player that much

 

[Frankenheimer]

Love it. Good vibes.

 

[bleuetbio]

Foley from Recruites got him 34th on his list

 

[Tyson]

A longterm project similar to other Finns we have drafted in recent years

 

[HabzSauce]

So what's this guy's ceiling?

Never seen him play.

 

[Jee]

Lol we're so freaking obvious

 

[Seb]

Couldn't care less if he's good or not. We got Koivu and it's all that matters.

 

[ArtPeur]

I hope someone asks him if he's gonna learn French

 

[Vachon23]

Wasn’t my favorite prospect available, but cool story and not mad about that pick at all

 

[GlassesJacketShirt]

I'm not accusing the regime of using the draft to build goodwill with the fanbase
