This morning, on TSN radio in MTL, they had one of the rankings, and the Finn was ranked much lower than #5....the rationale behind this was that his speed is average at best, which might not translate well into this new fast-paced NHL. He'll make the NHL, but he won't be dominating because of his lack of speed.
It's not the first time I hear reports that his speed might be an issue.
If we were picking #7 or 8, sure take the Finn.....but at #3, maybe you take players suited for the speed of the NHL....like Zadina, BT, Quinn
I think they will take Zadina or Tkatchuk.....especially when I hear that Zadina is responsible in his own zone....Habs love those players, and he can score
