Pôs acima apenas 9 objetivos e 7 assistências em 26 jogos lá, mas estava patinando +6 do € do ¬â do ‚ de ââ um -19 das últimas estações da melhoria excesso grande que avaliam como um caloiro de OHL. Still, he entered the 2007 WJC well below everybody’s radar. No more. Finland was eliminated by the U.S. yesterday in quarterfinal play, 6-3, but for no fault from Osala. His two goals in the game were the subject of lavish hockeysfuture message board hosannas, and throughout the tournament his game-dictating play has been singled out, even among more high-profile Finnish prospects. He exits the tournament fourth in scoring, with 3 goals and 5 assists in 5 games. It’s just one tournament, but it’s one of the best in all of hockey, and the Ice Dogs can be assured of seeing an ultra-confident Osala bolster their second half. And Caps’ fans can add another name to watch for the future.

    Osala has a new coach this year in the OHL and is not seeing much PP time where man points at the major junior level are accumulated. Having a great tourney regardless.

    Varlamov has been solid. Only gave up a goal today vs. Sweden.

    Backstrom a couple of assists but not having a great tourney point wise overall.
