Kristian Tanus

Small quality playmaker who plays with some edge and willingness to go to the hard areas. Was a dominant face off man in the World junior Showcase where he QB ed the power play from the half wall and setting up quality chances. Has good edging but is an average skater who can add a burst when its needed. Has quick stick. Plays to his strengths and although he has issues against bigger players, perseveres and has success at the junior level. Diminutive centre with excellent vision and hockey IQ, and terrific passing prowess Strong two way player. in the Finnish second division. Plays on the PK too.
