Latest Fantasy Rumors
Likely to stick in NHL
Koivunen, who was elevated from the minors Friday, is expected to remain with Pittsburgh for the rest of the 2024-25 campaign, per Josh Yohe of The Athletic.
ANALYSIS
Koivunen's promotion, along with that of Rutger McGroarty, will give him a chance to adjust to the speed of the NHL game. For his part, the 21-year-old Koivunen has yet to make his NHL debut but could be in the lineup to face Ottawa on Sunday. With the Baby Pens, the Finnish center racked up 21 goals and 34 assists in 62 minor-league contests -- showing why he was selected in the second round of the 2021 NHL Draft.
