He is an intelligent defenseman and has offensive skills, plus he has played international games for Finland. Also Jokerit forward Kasperi Ojantakanen is a good player. He has good skills with the puck and a good shot. I´m looking forward to see him playing more this season. TPS defenseman Matias Pulli has played well by looking at his points; however, I haven´t seen him playing yet. Also Jimi Kuronen from HIFK is a D who I would like to see this year. Aleksi Mustonen, a forward from Jokerit, is a player who has good potential.

I haven’t seen guys like Antonen, Levo or Koivistoinen yet this season, so hard to exactly say who the top 95’s are at the moment. Matias Pulli is in some ways like Sami Vatanen; a small defenseman who plays with his right hand down, skates well and has a good skill level. He could develop into a fine puck moving defenseman, if he grows some height and adapts a bit better to playing defence (he played forward before). Kuronen and Mustonen aren’t among my favourites. I like Tappara defenseman Atte Mäkinen a lot, he’s not quite putting it altogether yet but there are glimpses of greatness in his game.
