Can't load but just reading the titles! Terry Ryan, Chad Kilger, Hossa's little brother, Hackett for Potvin, etc. Thanks for the memories.

Lol, I think I'm the one who created that "Chad Kilger Gone" post.

 

[NORiculous]

season opener tomorrow, hope to get to see him play as I haven't had the chance yet to see him at all. I thought about getting the Summer Showcase package to watch him with Team Finland but ended up not doing it. I don't know too much about him yet as I thought at the time they picked him more for his last name but hopefully he ends up a legit prospect for us.

I think the same but will see.

 

[montreal]

I think the same but will see.

So far he's picked up 2 pts in 3 games with very limited TOI as he doesn't play any special teams but at least he's getting off to a good start. Don't know if he can crack the roster for Team Finland this year but certainly will be there next year. The Habs have 4 years so we'll see how it goes as he looks small out there.

Scrawny maybe, but not small. He looks comparable in stature to guys listed at 6'1

he does look small out there.

 

[mattihp]

he does look small out there.

Watch entire games and check out the other guys' heights.

Watch entire games and check out the other guys' heights.

I did, I've seen many times a player listed at one height and then somehow he's an inch or so shorter. It's only my 2nd time seeing him but he doesn't look 6'1 in the vid and just looks small to me.

Aatos Koivu on Saku Koivu: "It's too early to say it, but for sure I'm a better player in this moment that my father was at my age. There's still a long road to go before achieving my father career accomplishments. But at least my shot is already better than his shot.''

That's really cocky considering how good Saku was at that age. Hope he's right!

A. Koivu lined up to start the game at 1RW today vs. Assat

Seems like quite the promotion given he's been struggling

Koivu making big moves

He's a good skater and he's not afraid to get his nose dirty in front of the net... He's playing in Liiga which is a big step up for him, but he certainly doesn't look out of place.

Very nice wrister, he made his papa proud !

Harder shot than his Dad.

 

[Skip Bayless]

He has a really good shot. He can build around that.

Same recipe as Lehkonen and Kapanen.

 

[WeThreeKings]

It is funny that he plays more like his uncle than his dad.

 

[Tyson]

Koivu with an assist in a 6-5 loss.

He now has 5 pts (1G, 4A) in 12 GP

Aatos is producing which is promising

Aatos is producing which is promising

Love it because for me, the fact he's in Liiga at 18 and producing for a depth player mostly in the Bottom-6 is a positive.
