There are a huge bunch of power markings in the NHL in 600 power points. Oulu -based Oulu -based, Dallas today, reached this evenings on Wednesday morning Mikael Granlund;
In comparison, only 11 Finnish players have reached 600 NHL points. Granlund has all the eight most powerful Finnish NHL players.
Although Granlund is not counted as the Finnish NHL iconic icon, the attacker, who once reserved in the first round, has made a large Finnish player in any view.
-Maybe that figure tells us that quite a few NHL games have already been played and age is starting to be. And, of course, that I have been able to play most of my career here quite intact. Of course, it’s great that I have been able to bring something to the offensive game, Granlund said of the importance of power points.
No weaknesses
As a player in North America, Granlund has experienced quite a bit of transformation in North America.
In the autumn of 2012, the Air -loved hero loved by the whole nation went to the NHL as a well -known attack -head player. However, Arkirealism struck soon in Minnesota, and even in the fourth NHL season, scores (13+31) hippies.
Now Granlund is a capable general player. A player who has little weakness.
– Physically, I was quite raw at first, and certainly there have been many ways to develop in many ways. Skating has gone forward and I have learned to play overwhelming, underpower, all. A role as a role.
That’s probably the biggest thing. Of course, a lot of the same stuff is still in the game, Granlund spun.
– We have gone forward and the feeling is that the best years are still ahead.
Granlund really is a player who can play a role as a role. Although the Oulu -based Oulu is not one of the elite individuals in the series, two years at the weak San Jose showed how a versatile player is. Granlund grew to become a leading figure for a young and inexperienced team, and even played hockey in his life-at least in terms of good fitness in Northern California.
It was clear that the excellent extracts at San Jose would give rise to interest elsewhere and eventually Dallas wanted a Finn in his ranks.
– It was known that something would happen. San Jose is in the rebuilding phase and they are looking for building blocks for the future. When I heard I was going to Dallas, the feeling was very good. I got into a very good team that has been in the playoffs in recent years. Again, there is a chance for this team anywhere.
Trophy finally at the hands of the hands
The situation is delicious for Granlund, as a long and handsome NHL career has not included big moments of the party at the team level. Granlund has only played twice in his career in the second round of the playoffs. Last time in spring 2015 in Minnesota. Pittsburgh and Nashville were not successful candidates during Granlund and San Jose in the basement.
Now, for the first time, the window is truly open to Granlund, who has gone well into the new team. In addition to good basic play, he has recorded 11 (3+8) power points in 16 matches.
– After all, it’s a great situation. I’ve been a lot in the playoffs, but now it’s really the opportunity to go far. Here is all the lunch for the player and the team. Of course, you should not think too far. There are many other good teams involved, Granlund recalls.
Needless to say, Granlund greeted with joy as well Mikko Rantanen Acquisition for Dallas.
– Mikko has been sitting here very well. Sure, he doesn’t have many games yet, but we are talking about one of the best winger in the series. It’s pretty sweet to get such a player on the team. From the player’s point of view, of course, the situation is quite favorable when the club hits everything.
All Granlund is in the spring of spring in a delicious situation. After a difficult spring in Pittsburgh in 2023, this NHL star seemed to be slightly down, but the years in San Jose and the last few weeks in Dallas have blown a whole new flame into Granlund’s career.
Although a five million contract is about to expire, there is no concern to the continuation of the NHL career. In the summer, Granlund’s phone will ring frequently. Whether he wants to continue in Dallas or change the landscape, the player could not say.
“I haven’t thought about it,” Granlund claimed.
“It’s pretty nice to taste”
Granlund is a versatile and valuable player for Dallas in the spring. A player who, like Wednesday morning, may solve even a big match in overtime, or be in the last second to block the shot off his own goal in the underdog. It is this reliability and versatility that has finally made Granlund play for the biggest prize in the hockey world.
In Granlund’s situation, many could have begun to start bumping into a miserable San Jose. Granlund worked hard at San Jose, developed himself, gained success and gained appreciation around the league.
The prize was a shop for the top club and an even bigger prize may wait around the corner.
– It tastes like hockey right now, Granlund tasted.
