Flashsabre Posted May 31 Report Posted May 31 Those playoff games and this tournament are like 3 years of development for him. Kid is going to be a star. 3 2 Quote
Kristian Posted May 31 Report Posted May 31 I like how he bodychecked the two Swiss players on the celly. 1 1 Quote
Flashsabre Posted May 31 Report Posted May 31 (edited) That Golden Goal was a beauty. The play was great, the knocking 2 Swiss players on their ass after scoring makes it legendary 😁 Tage’s golden goal last year helped Tage with his confidence. This goal will help Konsta immensely. Great to see the coaches threw him right in with Finland’s top players. Edited June 1 by Flashsabre 5 Quote
French Collection Posted June 1 Report Posted June 1 Wow, great experience for this kid. He will be a national hero at 20 years old, with another 10-15 years of high level hockey ahead of him. Plays like that for Buffalo will put a smile on my face. I guess 94 is his number. 2 Quote

Pimlach Posted June 1 Report Posted June 1 Jarmo better understand that this guy is a 1C someday. And maybe someday soon. Quote

And maybe someday soon. I sure as heck wouldn’t move him for Thomas. After all, if we are *really* lucky, he could even become a point a game, Thomas-level player in a few years.

That's the amazing thing: He doesn't make gratuitous contact, but when things get rough he sure doesn't shy away. 1 Quote
