Canes get another Finnish goalie

by hockeyjade

in the first round of the Euro draft, GM Rich Preston selected 6.1, 195lbs Ville Kolpanen a goaltender from Tampere Finland.(Juha's home town?)Ville is not eligible for the NHL draft until 2010. The Canes selected 32nd overall and they will not make a selection in the second round as they plan on keeping Luca Sbisa on the protected list. Could Ville be a larger version of Juha Metsola? If so, it would be a good selection as the Canes are weak in nets.

  1. Well let's hope he is as good as Juha was in his first. canes rock, Jul 1, 2009, 9:17 AM
