I can totally see a Nubian Royal Starship coming in for a landing! So. Had to comment on this , but wanted to bump Utinen's thread for the purpose of discussion. Seems to me he's not talked about much in here. I got high on him after seeing him in the WJC's. Does anyone in CDC have thoughts of this kid? I like what I saw. He captained Team Finland and that's gotta mean something. I know he's not big. But in todays NHL, that seems not to be an issue. do you guys think he'll make the bigs with us? 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SID.IS.SID.ME.IS.ME Posted October 1, 2020 Share Posted October 1, 2020 Liiga season opened today. Utunen and Tappara play their first game tomorrow against Lukko. Haven’t heard anything yet about Palmu, but he’s not listed as a 2020-21 player on the official Liiga webpage, so I’d imagine he and his agent are still looking for a place for him to play.

Better not be bad mouthing our defensive specialist Shut up! Louie is one of the six million dollar defenders: Eddie, Schmidt, and Myers. & Louie.

Googlie Posted March 4, 2021 Share Posted March 4, 2021 Such a pity that Utonen isn't a righty. We have such a glut of LHDs. He is turning out to be Tanev-like in his focus on defense with the odd attacking foray Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Herberts Vasiljevs Posted March 4, 2021 Share Posted March 4, 2021 (edited) He's only 20 and has already played nearly 4 seasons in the Liiga. That's pretty incredible. Edited March 4, 2021 by Herberts Vasiljevs 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Googlie Posted April 20, 2021 Share Posted April 20, 2021 Looks like everyone is wearing full face shields. I'm guessing that's mandatory in Finland right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know if I would use a roster spot on him to be honest. If we are trying to ice a competitive team in Abby, then yes I'd keep him. However if we are looking for future NHL prospects, then I think we can do a bit better even getting free agents out of NCAA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
