Aatos Koivu comes from a well-known family name in the NHL, especially in Montreal. The son of Saku made a strong impression at the NHL Combine last week.
The 17-year-old Finn is ranked in the 3rd round and has shown significant improvement over the past 2 years. He performed well at the Under-18 World Championship.
He's a well-rounded player, not flashy, but effective in all aspects of the game.
He met with several teams at the Combine, including the Montreal Canadiens. The forward particularly enjoyed his interview with the Canadiens' management.
