Arttu Karki

This Finnish defender is big raw developmental defenseman that 's not the some of his parts just yet. He is a strong four direction skater. His hockey IQ is growing , so that his head eventually will catch up with his movements. He is aggressive in board battles and in front of his net. Is able to clear his end with good outlets, and can stick with the speedier attackers when the enter his defensive zone. Willing and able to walk the blue line and create shooting lanes and passing angles. He ranks up there as one of the top four Finnish defenders that will hear their names called at the Draft.
