Rasmus Kupari broke through in last year’s Ivan Hlinka Memorial Tournament, where he grabbed the bull by the horns and showed the world that Finland will never dry up when it comes to top-end talent. His seven points (2G, 5A) in four games were secondary to the overall offensive game that put his skating, vision, and stickhandling on full display.
