JYP: Draft Utopia

Joakim Kemell Scouting Report

The 5-11 176 lb Joakim Kemell only had 1 goal in 1 game on JYP's main roster against men in 2020-2021. Kemell had 15 goals, 8 assists, and 23 points on JYP's main roster against men in 2021-2022. Joakim Kemell came into this season as a line 2 right winger behind Brad Lambert before beating out Lambert for the first line right winger role on JYP after Lambert was getting the hype of a top 3 player. Joakim Kemell has the speed, skating, agility, playmaking, sniping, passing, wrist shot power, wrist shot accuracy, slap shot power, slap shot accuracy, release, offensive awareness, hockey IQ, stick handling, ability to dominate on the power play, ability to dominate as a penalty killer, and ability to win faceoffs. He's a sniper with amazing hands and elite stick handling that can do everything you want a line 1 right winger to do on tape, but he needs to improve his defensive awareness in order to play on a first line in the NHL.

Brad Lambert Scouting Report

The 6-0 179 lb Brad Lambert is versatile enough to play left wing, center, or right wing with his versatility. He's not only the most versatile player in this draft, but you could also make the argument that he's got the most explosion of any skater in this draft. That speed and athleticism as a skater is why Lambert is getting the benefit of the doubt despite a rough start in 2021-2022. Lambert played his first season on Helsingfors IFK. He fumbled a penalty shot in one of his games on Helsingfors IFK in 2019-2020. The following year he got moved to JYP where he had 7 goals, 8 assists, and 15 points. My player comparison for Brad Lambert was Florida Panthers team captain Aleksander Barkov. Barkov had 7 goals, 9 assists, and 16 points in his rookie season with Tappara prior to his draft year where he took off with 21 goals, 27 assists, and 48 points. I'm expecting Lambert to get 20 goals, 25 assists, and 45 points with JYP this season. Right now Lambert only has 1 assist and no goals in 9 Liiga games against men in Finland. Brad Lambert may end up getting jumped in this years NHL Draft rankings if he continues to struggle.
