Just a suspicion, not really based on anything other than reading.

It's unlikely that they'll stay in Finland but it's entirely possible that they'll spend some time in the AHL. They'll get a long look at camp but their chances depend on their summers and the teams that draft them.
Not guaranteed to make their NHL teams right away at this point, but who knows where they are after a long summer.
