I haven't seen any reports or expectations that based on his top play in Liiga he will even be given much of a chance to finally get into the NHL.
There might not be a direct translation of the play in Liiga to NHL success.

Oh yeah for sure, I wasn’t saying there was a direct correlation between point production in the Liiga and in the NHL, by any means. I’m just sorta thinking aloud and giving out little tidbits to be excited about. We could sure use some hockey......
