For an 18-year old in Liiga playing on the 4th line and mostly less than 10 minutes a game, Koivu's stats so far are impressive.
He has 5 pts (1G, 4A) in 14 GP.
Out of the 14 games, he played less than 10 minutes in 9 of them. He played between 10 and 12 minutes in 3 of them. And in only 2 did he play more than 12 minutes (12:17 one game and 14:36 the other).
Comparing him to Kapanen, who in his D+1 year played 18 Liiga games and had 4 pts (1G, 3A). Also in his D+1 year, Kapanen played 11 U20 games and 8 Mestis games.
It's not guaranteed that Koivu will be in Liiga all year. He already played one U20 game. And like Kapanen was, Koivu might get loaned to a team in Mestis. Things can change throughout the season. But I think it is still impressive that Koivu is able to put up some points as an 18-year old depth player.
Hopefully like Kapanen did, Koivu will rise through the ranks from year to year and you see clear progress.

hasn't played a game since returning from the 5 Nations, I believe he is considered to be on the bubble for making the team this year so I hope this doesn't hurt his chances if he's say out much longer (I know we have a month to go yet)
This is the only game I have from said 5 Nations, thought he was solid in it,

It was said he was sick but that was 10 days ago, haven't heard any update and he hasn't played anywhere since the 10th.

we'll see if he plays tomorrow then, I thought maybe they sent him back to juniors since he hasn't played in over 2 weeks.

What I saw was from Friday, just saw they posted another update on Saturday, the sick players are expected to resume training with the team in a week or two.
