We’re picking 12th? Good. I wrote this up earlier but didn’t want to jinx it and move up to 2nd or anything and miss out on this guy. At no point during the day did I think twice about posting this. Here’s my case for Konsta Helenius.
Slightly undersized, intelligent, playmaking center with good vision, high compete, a physical aspect to his game and who’s good in all three zones…come on, who does that sound like? Claude “Motherfuck the penguins” Giroux. Just check out these goals and tell me there isn’t a similarity.
Konsta:
[Fuck](https://youtu.be/7u_mU_BiDQU?feature=shared&t=93)
Claude-a:
[Yeah](https://youtu.be/8YOohzJnU5U?feature=shared&t=50)
I’m getting so hyped here, I could almost woo. Helenius has the swagger right down to the stick sheath celly. My fellow flyers faithful, remove the veil of the so called “experts” saying this is a defensemen heavy draft and realize that like in Avatar the Last Airbender, where the avatar is born again in a different nation, Claude Giroux HAS BEEN REBORN in Finland. It is not a coincidence that Helenius was born the year Giroux was drafted. The letter H comes right after G. He is him, him is next G. Mr. Briere, draft H.

Hell yeah brother
I have a feeling he’ll be off the board before we pick
If he falls I’m all in. Looks like a good pairing with Michkov. He’s already got the defensive game too so hopefully Torts won’t bench him. Great write up.
Love it. We need center help more than any other position.
If it’s a defense heavy draft class then great, cause we have another 1st rd pick!
