F Konsta Helenius - Jukurit, FIN Liiga (2024, 14th, BUF)

[Erikfromfin]

Right shot right winger. A skating machine flies past opponents down the wing also has good hands and goalscorers shot and finishing abilities also works hard defensivily. Top Finns for 2024 Draft.

Few good flashes, decent defensively, he needs at least 2 years in AHL, definitely longshot.

Let's not forget that he's more than two years younger than great and hyped prospects like Noah Östlund and Jiri Kulich, first rounders as well. Of course he will play at least one season with Rochester.
If he even makes it next year and one year before they did that's quite impressive because I consider those two other prospects as very promising.

I mean the Sabres do have such a young forward group but they are older than Konsta. It will be difficult to get ice time before other first round picks before. I can mention others like Rosén, Benson, Cozens, Krebs, Peterka besides stars in their prime like TT and Tuch.
Thing is I already rate Östlund and Kulich higher than some of the players in Sabres. Peterka is born 2002 and very underrated in the league and it's not like they will keep Konsta playing in a fourth line role.
So not even a hot take seeing him playing for the Rochester by now.
