Junkyard Dog Posted November 19, 2016 Share Posted November 19, 2016 He isn't like Maata. Maata isn't as good of a playmaker, skater or as smooth. Juolevi has more offensive upside. Somewhere along a mix of OEL/Vlasic is where I would put in terms of his his play style. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least that's how I see it. I still wouldn't expect him to be as great as Hjalmarsson defensively, but I guess if he doesn't pan out offensively he can focus more on defense and take less risks.

Pretty much his offense doesn't translate or develop at the NHL level and he develops 'poorly', a 'basement' comparison of Maata is not far off IMO. That's pretty much worst-case and IMO, unlikely.

TheSnipeshow91 Posted November 19, 2016 Share Posted November 19, 2016 Watching the knights-Battalion game. Juolevi is soo well positioned on defense, he's always in good position for a stick check. He's not overly physical but he doesn't need to be because he's just so smart in his own end cough *lidstom* cough. No but seriously he's amazing in his own end, his hockey sense is top notch. The only issue I see is he looks a little tired and lazy out there, I assume it has something to do with his athletisicm. A good offseason in the gym should solve that.

Exactly. If he doesn't get his way offensively at the next level, he can focus on being even more defensively aware than he already is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

messier's_elbow Posted November 19, 2016 Share Posted November 19, 2016 It's nice to see all the love for Juolevi in here... He's definitely our best prospect in my eyes. Can't wait to see him again at WJC (and Boeser) being the leader on that team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's got star # 1 Norris winner written all over him. There are some posters here who have never played with a Norris calibre d man, so they just don't understand his importance. That's okay though. Alf still loves them, even though they lack true hockey knowledge at the elite level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheHockeyNerds Posted November 19, 2016 Share Posted November 19, 2016 I feel Canuck fans get feel a little slighted when he gets compared to Matta. Let's just remember matta is still a great dman who had his development go a little south with all his injuries from 2013-2016. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both are showing very well and seem to be character guys. I like that JB seems to be getting character players with these two, added bonus to their abilities.

Juolevi is eligible for two more seasons. Tons of room for him to develop and grow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beary Sweet Posted November 19, 2016 Share Posted November 19, 2016 (edited) Juolevi is unreal. I can't believe that he didn't even hesitate on what he was going to do with the puck when he recieved the pass. He knew exactly what he was going to do. He's always a step ahead of everyone on the ice. If he becomes a Ohlund or a Salo type of player, watch out. He will be one of franchise's best defencemen Edited November 19, 2016 by Beary Sweet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boudrias Posted November 19, 2016 Share Posted November 19, 2016 With Tryamkin and Stecher on the Vancouver scene already it makes Joulevi's arrival less imperative and should enhance his development opportunity. Classic Canuck is to bring him into the NHL to quickly. I prefer a season in Utica as more a matter of course. With the current youth already on the Van d-core it is likely how he evolves. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
