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,

so if Koivu doesn't make it , we won't have a single prospect in the WJ's again? Lame and boring, looks like so many more teams are drafting so solid and aren't in a rebuild.

You just defend Kent and MSL till the end, your opinion on the matter is tainted and heavily influenced by what you read on these boards. That is a fact.
:lol:
Fowler... sucks
Hage... puck hog
Demidov... ruined
Hutson... overrated
Reinbacher... injured bust
Beck... glorified chicpchura
Mesar... nepotism
Konyushkov... Russian mirage
Engstrom... we can't draft swedes
Rohrer... Austria lol
Davidson... if Ryan white couldn't fight
Volohkin... won't leave russia
FloX... nepotism part deux
Miller... injury prone
Koivu... nepotism triple threat
Protz... more like klutz
Thorpe... ain't no Isbister
Slaf... ain't no kilger


Yup, 3 drafts, nothing to show for it... so many other teams have a better prospect list than that... like at least 2 or 3 :eviltongu

should be, but he won't be because the scumbags at Team Canada are an old boys club who bury scandals and are set in their ways
lol dude. Hage has every right to be there and Demidov would blow that tourney out of the water if his country was allowed to play. Come on you know all this.

You gonna pretend we didn’t make out like bandits last draft?
