European Prospect Report: Comparing the draft-plus-one seasons of Jesse Ylönen and Joni Ikonen

With all but one European Canadiens prospects off because of the international break, only Jesse Ylönen was in action in regular Liiga play this past week.

Ylönen had two games and scored twice in the second game, a 7-2 route of SaiPa. His first goal was a tap-in while the puck was behind the goalie.

His second goal really stood out, and you can see his quick thinking and the fast movement of his hands on the play.

With more than half of the season played in Liiga, there is an interesting comparison to be made: seeing how far Jesse Ylönen has progressed in his development by comparing him to other players in their draft-plus-one season.
