LW Patrik Laine - Tappara, Liiga (2016 Draft) V

[44]

Why did Laine leave the ice? I dont understand finnish

Equipment trouble apparently

Either had to take a piss or needed to fix his equipment nothing to worry about.

 

[QnebO]

Lajunen is able to barry it..!

Laine was clearly tripped, tough non call, but nice assist from falling to the goal.

 

[44]

Laine is so good under pressure. He was tripped and still managed to get the puck to the net while falling down. Should get an assist on the 2-0 goal

 

[QnebO]

Great assist!! 1+2 for laine

 

[TheFinnishTrap]

Dat pass.

 

[44]

Another one

 

[Hasa92]

And another assist for Laine.

 

[kunekune]

1+2 today. What a pass on Kuusela goal. Wow!

 

[QnebO]

Laine playoff totals some one who remembers? Counting these 3 points.

 

[JustaFinnishGuy]

Seems like a bust like someone earlier dared to say he was

Should be 9+5 now.

 

[chauron]

Patrik showed up to the game today.

INSANE performance, one man is carrying the whole elite team on his shoulders.

 

[Phosphophyllite]

Beautiful crispy pass. Glad it was to Kuusela, he can be relied to bury it there.

 

[Woodhouse]

Laine with a nice cross-ice, circle-to-circle PP pass to set up Kuusela for a one-timer .. 3-0 Tappara late and 1+2 for Laine.

Does he project as more of a LW or RW at the next level?

 

[DaJackal]

Matthews: THAT is how you carry your team in the playoffs.

Amazing game from Laine today.

 

[Uncle Scrooge]

Please stop this overhyping. He is 18.

Damn it

I guess some people overe here really hadn't watched much Jágr before he was like 100 years old.

Good point, i mean it feels like todays Jagr's been around for ages so when people talk about Jagr i always think of the modern (and old) Jagr.

Jagr in his young age had a lot more speed and explosiveness in 1 on 1 situations compared to Laine, so i don't think young Jagr is really that much of a comparison.

Matthews: THAT is how you carry your team in the playoffs.

Amazing game from Laine today.

Matthews? What does this have to do with him? Am I missing something?

 

[chauron]

I don't care if this guy is drafted #2, it's that team's fault then.

This dude is going to be the best of this age group, true #1.

First assist:

[Conspiracy Theorist]

Who's ever idea was to put Laine away from 1st line?

 

[agent082]

Does he project as more of a LW or RW at the next level?

Whatever the team needs in their first line.

 

[IFK]

No we have seen Laine almost first time this season in Tappara's first line with Kuusela and Lajunen, if he had a have same limitless ice time with best players in his team like Matthews, i think he would have more than PPG in pre season.
