AI Scouting Report
FreeLaitinen quietly put up a point-per-game season (41 points in 41 games) in one of the most demanding U20 leagues in the world, doing it as a center who makes the players around him measurably better through sharp puck distribution and relentless two-way positioning. His game translates because Finnish development at the U20 level rewards hockey IQ over raw flash, and Laitinen's instinctive read of plays in tight spaces projects him as a dependable third-line pivot who can handle defensive zone starts and still produce at the NHL level.
