I've never seen the kid play, but Jurmo is apparently the Finnish version of Sean Day. Good skater and good tools, but no toolbox and doesn't use his size. Heralded as a future star at age 18, but hasn't improved his game much since then. We'll see how true that is if he comes to North America, but we should probably temper expectations on him becoming an NHL defensemen or being anything more than a toss-in from the Nucks.
