Prospect Info: Lenni Hämeenaho (#58 Pick - 2nd Round - 2023 Draft)

[Zajacs Bowl Cut]

So that actually sounds disappointing. I was hopeful he'd come to camp and try for a spot here.

it actually doesn't sound like that at all? He literally says he is unsure.

Rare, small Devils related stuff when it comes to Lenni:

Devils development coach Esa Pirnes was at the game, and Lenni exchanged some words with him (no further info on that).

Said that the Devils have been in contact, but he's wanted to not do it to an excessive degree. Wants to now focus on this Ässät season. And that because of the military service last summer he's not been there in a while.

Lenni said that he feels like he's taken good steps in his development. That he can make the final decision himself when it comes to him going and challenging for an NHL spot, but atm. he's unable to reveal the time when he's leaving.

He can wait until after June 2027 and then sign with a better organization.

I'm sure after seeing the Doumolin trade he's already counting the days.
