Lassi Alanen hehkutti myös Konstaa, todennäköisesti paljon paremmin kartalla kuin nämä Buttonit yms. 16-vuotiaana Jokisen Jukureissa sentterinä on jo itsessään aika kova saavutus.
"Konsta Helenius, C, Jukurit (2024 NHL Draft)
With strong performances in both league and international play,
Konsta Helenius has emerged as the top Finnish prospect for the 2024 draft alongside
Aron Kiviharju. Starting off the season with Tappara in the U20 league, he was loaned to Jukurit's Liiga team in late November and has worked his way to a full-time centre role as a 16-year-old. Adding four points in eight games with Jukurit, including a two-goal game to end the month, Helenius was also a top player for Finland at the U18 Four Nations.
Helenius isn't the most dynamic skater and has a lot of room for further physical development, but he sees the game at a high level, especially offensively. He has a strong feel for ways to beat pressure, plays and makes good decisions with pace and has a knack of both finishing plays and setting up quality chances in the slot. Based on how his game has been trending, he could end up being a top-15 pick in 2024."
Elite Prospects Dir. of European Scouting Lassi Alanen kicks off this month's Stock Watch with a look at Finland, offering updates on Aku Räty, Ville Koivunen, Eetu Liukas, Joakim Kemell, and Niko Huuhtanen.

Vahva suositus tuolle EP:n tilaukselle, jos rahaa on ylimääräistä niin kannattaa ehdottomasti tukea. Lukuisia muitakin hyviä artikkelaja, mutta pelkästään Lassin työstä maksaisin jo vuosimaksun.
