Petteri Simila OHL Bound


Excerpts from the HabProspects.com article:



The CHL Import Draft saw two Hab prospects get selected, Petteri Simila 21st overall by Niagara Ice Dogs and Alexander Avtsin was picked 43rd overall from the Quebec Remparts, it appears as though Simila will report to the OHL but Avtsin will not report to the QMJHL.


With the Niagara Ice Dogs losing their starting goaltender to Nashville, Simila should get every chance to be a starter although he will likely only spend one season in the OHL since he is a '90 born, he would have to play as an overager the following season and that's rare for a Euro Import.
