European Prospect Report: Jesse Ylönen finds his goal-scoring range

With all Montreal Canadiens fans’ eyes on the opposite side of the ice, where a certain Jesperi Kotkaniemi lined up, Jesse Ylönen thought it was a good time to steal the limelight. In a game that featured both Montreal prospects, both stood out, however Ylönen did it on the scoresheet. He got his first goal of the season when he took over the power play, in a very Ylönen fashion.

Below is a typical Ylönen play: good forecheck and defensive read and then a fast transition to the other end of the ice.
