Just the little bit I get to watch I'd say Jaaska plays a more Canes style of game. I'd rather see Suzuki get a chance but I'd guess that has something to do with it. Jaaska has also produced really well after a slow start.

If you're not going to use Suzuki just trade him for something

Does any team have a Honda?

This is Hurricanes Hockey
At this point Skylar Brind’amour will get recalled before Suzuki

Isn’t Suzuki hurt or sick? He did miss the last Wolves game…
Well I hope that’s the reason for the non-call up. It seems the FO has something against him…

Could be the first NHL player to have played men's games for a team in the hockey hinterland that is Finnish Lapland, which I'm sure is a fascinating bit of info to you.

It could be that what they hold against him is they don't see him being good enough to play in the National

Probably his playing ability.
I don’t know what half of those words are, but I assume this is impressive in some way.

It's just that my home province was a total black hole in terms of hockey when I was growing up, so it's kind of funny to see any connection between Lapland and the NHL.

It honestly could be something as simple as "It's better for Suzuki's development to play top line minutes in the AHL than to play 4th line minutes in the NHL"

It's the home of lapdancing.
Wasn't Jääskä signed to be a NHL injury backup? He is 26 and after a slow start has been scoring nicely for the Wolves.
btw: he looks physically up to par with his 6'0" height & weight listed as anywhere from 191lbs (AHL.com) to 196lbs (wiki) to 210lbs (Nhl.com) <the reality of the internet with challenges to know what is the real fact>

That’s pretty cool. My world geography skills are subpar, hence me not knowing what that was.

Nah, it's just typical Finnish hubris and obliviousness to assume that everyone in North America knows the name of every Finnish province.

FWIW, Lapland is one of the top winter-wonderland vacation spots in the world. If you want to ride a reindeer sled under the aurora, that’s your bucket list destination.

And spot F/A-18s in the wild. Although they will be extinct in a couple of years because of invasive species (F-35).
Edit: now with a picture

Ultimately, it's going to be pretty cool for the guy. Gets to play against great Finnish players like Barkov and Lundell and gets to play on the same team as Finnish legends like Aho and Jarvis.
