Hartikainen's Hot Hand Halts HIFK
As far as the game goes, Sami Kapanen was out with a bad back, so Hartikainen was bumped up to the first line with Tommi Miettinen and Kalle Kerman. Hartikainen responded with a beauty of a game - two assists, six shots and a plus two rating.
In the four games since his service ended, his stat line looks strong:

That’s a nice-looking stat line all on its own. Add in hitting and penalty-killing as reported, and it’s better than nice.

I cannot wait for this guy to come over, he sounds just like Ryan Stone, only with goal scoring ability
Well, in fairness, once upon a time Ryan Stone was Ryan Stone, only with goal-scoring ability.

Johan thinks he should come over next year. I plan on asking Teemu after the season.

I’m not knocking Stone, I’m just saying the way Hartikainen’s game is described sounds just like present day Ryan Stone, just with a scoring touch
It’s the name that killed Ryan more than anything. I just hope Hartikainen isn’t Finnish for “cinder block”.
