3 goals in 3 games (4 pts) for Jokerit U20 so far.

 

[Frk It]

I am assuming he is hurt, but having a hard time finding info.

Does anyone have information on what injury he had and how long he is out?

 

[neelynugs]

eliteprospects game log says he has an assload of SOG basically every game

Welcome to Arizona

 

[Artorius Horus T]

Great start in the USHL

4 goals, 11 points in 7 games so far.
about 30 shots on goal, on a 7 game point streak

 

[Jukurit]

7 goals and 17 points in 11 games in USHL. Anybody watched his USHL games? How's he looking? I though he was pretty good in U20 tournament played in Rovaniemi (3 points in 3 games).

 

[Artorius Horus T]

Yeah, who is this guys and why is he leading the USHL in points.

Playing style reminds me a lot about Mikko Lehtonen. No, not that Mikko Lehtonen and not that one either.. This one:

[Jukurit]

Up to 28 points in 18 games in USHL. Second in scoring in that league. Highest points per game in that league. Anybody who watches USHL have any insight on this guy?

 

[Frk It]

Has a history of being productive at every level he's played at. Arizona might have gotten a gem in getting him in a draft season where he missed some time with an injury. Will be curious to see how he does in the NCAA next year.

 

[William H Bonney]

Traded to Waterloo. Big pickup for the #4th overall team in the standings right now. Waterloo is a pretty balanced team scoring wise but adding a guy who should be their go-to forward up front is pretty big.

Fairly unique player. Ugly skater, but gets around the ice fine. At his size, you don't worry about it too much. Deadly shot, heavy and accurate. Dangerous from anywhere in the zone.

Big loss for DU. I'll be interested to follow Matikka's progression.
