There is still a lot of hype among NHL writers regarding Jesse Ylönen, and it might be because of the Finnish connection in Montreal at the moment, or because he was picked early in the second round. Yet he hadn’t shown anything for a few weeks.
There was a Ketchup Effect for the Finnish forward this week, as he got one goal and two assists in three games, the first two points coming in a game against KalPa.
The following shot really impressed me. It’s such a quick release and Ylönen gets such speed on the puck with next to no space along the boards.
