‘ Jokiharju was solid with Chicago prior to the World Junior Championship over the winter, but was sent down to Rockford afterwards to get further seasoning. However, the Blackhawks’ acquisitions of Olli Maatta and Calvin de Haan meant Jokiharju wasn’t guaranteed a spot with the big club. He now has the opportunity to step into a spot on a Sabres team that’s still rebuilding and adds strong, two-way depth on the right side. Jokiharju is coming off of a season that saw him win gold at the World Championship and world juniors, and his 12 points in 38 games made him a name to watch early in the season.’
