Joakim Kemell Scouting Reports

Most noticeable when Team Finland had the PP vs Team Swiss
No question he has a gear. He's an explosive skater / Quick and Fast
Off the rush his first instinct is to get pucks to the net on his own. More of a shooter than a playmaker
Struggled with the trapping style of team Swiss. Never really got going at even strength.
Offense is his element. Values open space.

Continues to impact the game in relation to his element.
Plays quick, fast, competitive style
Leans offense. Lethal on the PP with back door one timer.
Has recently shown more detail off the puck. His exits are better timed. He doesn't waste time tracking back when his team is defending.
Element is offense. The rest of his game is evolving without taking away production.

Ends the year on a positive note at the U18 Worlds in Germany (5gp-6g-2a-8pts)
Used in all situations. The puck goes through him on the PP. He finds space on his off-side to one-times pucks. He is more of a shooter than a distributor. Kemell brings an energetic, competitive game that at times lacks some detail. He's explosive skater. Joakim will battle to extend plays along the boards. He can be deployed in a variety of roles. His speed, offense, and overall involvement are attractive elements. Top 6 NHL upside is possible

His most recent 10 game segment has shown improvement and more impact.
AVG TOI (15:33) (3G-2A) Being deployed at ES and PP. (All sits when with own age group)
Streaky. Scores his goals in bunches. More of a goal scorer than distributor / playmaker.
There was a stretch of (14) games in Liiga this season where he didn't score a goal.
Quick and fast. He is a threat off the rush. Leads the PP break out. Opens up on his weak side in the offensive zone for one timers. Leans offense but also responsible defensively.
