2024 NHL Draft Profile: Mikkelin Jukurit Forward Konsta Helenius

Is Konsta Helenius just Finnish William Eklund? Alex Appleyard of Smaht Scouting joins to profile the Mikkelin Jukurit forward and what makes him such an intriguing player. We discuss Helenius' high-end hockey IQ, his ability to read plays, and how he needs to continue to work on his skating as he progresses. Then, we examine his timeline before he jumps to the NHL, where he would fit into the Sharks prospect pool and a comparison between Helenius and Mikael Granlund. Finally, how does Alex stack up the top 5 in the NHL Draft, and what are his thoughts on some of the defensemen in the class, including Zeev Buium. Check out the podcast on Twitter, Instagram, Facebook, and YouTube. Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!Monopoly GO!Get in the game and join your friends.
