Love it! Will probably play another year in Europe. So excited about his potential.

For a split second, i thought this is who it was, and that he was somehow making a comeback attempt. Or a...second chance attempt. Or...idk what you'd even categorize that as, considering he never made it in the first place...despite much fanfare and hoopla for a while.
But alas, it is not him. So that's less interesting.
Could have been drafted in 2023(Born in Dec 2004) so he is already a year older than most people drafted this year. Probably will play 1 year in Finland though before coming here although starting the year in Bridgeport not out of the question given his age
People who follow the draft might have a better take on him but from what I gather from the scouting reports. Above average skater for his size(6'6") and has some potential offensive upside. From the sounds of it he really hasn't concentrated much on hockey till this year(so room to grow?)

Very interesting and entertaining player to follow. Upside is very high. Giant d-man with a lot of skill. Chaotic playstyle.
