Eetu Tuulola's stats from the FEL this regular season: 60gp, 13+23=36 pts. His club HPK is currently playing in the 5th semi-final against Tappara. Eetu just scored a nice backhander to get his team up 2-1. (Well, now it's 3-1 for Eetu and HPK). I didn't see his regular-season games at all, but because of my favourite Finnish club TPS played against Eetu's HPK in the quarter finals, I've seen every single Tuulola's playoff games.

Eetu's been pretty solid so far. He's currently playing his 10th playoff game with stats 3+2, +1. He's pretty hard nosed guy with net front presence (clearly the best net front guy for his team). In the quarter-finals, he took couple of stupid penalties, but he's improved from that.

Will be fun to see how he evolves. I could see him as a bottom six two-way winger with some capability to get the opposing team's players annoyed (he always seems to have something to say to his opponents, and sometimes it creates some havoc). Haven't seen him fight though. Should also get a little bit faster with his skates. Maybe one more season in Finland, and after that we'll see.

Everything is possible in this life.
