Reminded me of Joe Pavelski in front of the net in the Worlds.

 

[Tryamkin]

Great player. Expecting a middle six forward career from him, but a solid producer.

He is/was projected to play with Timra in the SHL next year.

 

[Lockin17]

Great prospect, Can't wait to see him at camp

 

[Treb]

Great player. Expecting a middle six forward career from him, but a solid producer.

He is/was projected to play with Timra in the SHL next year.

Will go back to Europe unless he makes the Habs out of camp.

Another good signing. Hope he can make the team in the next two years, I can’t wait to watch him play with all of the youngsters already on the team

 

[Habsrule]

He is signed with Timra for the next two years with out clauses for if he makes the NHL.

 

[mattihp]

Needs to round out his game. Skill is there, but maybe as a winger to start. Great eye for the game and very good hands.

 

[seafoam]

The "better" Kapanen.

 

[Jukurit]

Good skater, works hard, smart player. Not much skill. NHL projection 20-40 point 2-way center.

 

[Mestaruus]

For those non Finns who may be wondering, he's the cousin of Kasperi Kapanen and Sami Kapanen is his uncle and there are more known ice hockey players in this circle, but I'm not going to list them all.

 

[MTL Dirty Birdy]

Good skater, works hard, smart player. Not much skill. NHL projection 20-40 point 2-way center.

Looking like Kapanen and Beck either playing a line together or that is our future middle six C tandem

 

[HabsAddict]

Beck and Kapanen are going to try to occupy the same space and time.

May the best 3C win

The "better" Kapanen.

Sami is back?
