Teemu Hartikainen
#35 / Left Wing / KalPa
6-1
201
May 3, 1990
Round 6, 2008 #163 overall
Wasama Trophy Winner, 2008-2009
KalPa dropped a a 5-4 decision to Ässät on Saturday, in a game in which the KalPa website mentions something about "Saturday Shirts and Leather Pants". I have no idea what that means, so either Google translator is lost, or some interesting stuff went down yesterday.
Hartikainen had a pair of assists and four shots on goal. He's got 8 points in 12 games thus far and he's up to 29 shots in 12 games with only 1 goal, so expect him to snap out of that soon.
From the lineup page, it appears that Hartikainen played on the third line.
Some outstanding game photography here from the KalPa website.

He is like Patrick O sullivan of last season eh. Tons of shots but nothing to show for it. He is to hoping that the bounces go his way!!!
They will, eventually. All of the scouting reports have him playing his game in the slot and crease. He’ll put together a four goal week and it will look much better.

Why do you like Hartikainen so much? Did you like him pre-draft? Or did you start following him after that? I am sorry I had started following your blog just about 2 months before you joined here. So I dot know the history behind you being the leader of the Cult Of Hartikainen!!!
Why do you like Hartikainen so much?
My two favorite Oilers ever are Kurri and Tikanen. Perhaps I have a predilection towards Finns?
Did you like him pre-draft? Or did you start following him after that?
I started following him after the draft around the time of the WJCs, when I watched Finland play. As I watched his numbers rise in the scoresheets, I just started to keep tabs on him and do some historical comps. I have no idea how he’ll turn out, but as of right now, he looks fantastic for the 163rd overall pick.

I root for him for similar reasons. He is a finnish player. I like prospects/players from lesser hockey countries( After Canada, Russia, Sweden and USA). Finland needs an upheaval. Its been some time since there has been a superstar from that nation. Not saying TH will be one, but even a slid NHL player will be welcome!!! But in the upcoming draft there are a couple of prospects who could be great. Mikael Granlund and Teemu Pulkinen
You are right TH as a propect looks good and yeah fantastic if you put in the draft position
