Outlaws fall in sweep

Will Denis be back in Turku?

 

Denis has the talent to succeed, and his playoff performance boosted his draft stock.

 

Although it was a great season, things did not end on top for the Turku Outlaws this year. The Finish squad fell 3-2 in the fourth game of the VHLM Finals and the series in four straight games. For Turku, it was a solid season that saw them struggle briefly, but without a doubt be one of the leagues premier teams. The team was led by a series of veterans as well as a couple of Season 39 Draftees. One of those draftees was Milos Denis, who struggled during the regular season but had a very good playoff, putting up 17 points in 11 games for the Outlaws. 

 

Denis is an interesting case for the upcoming draft in that he could be selected high, or fall to the lower ends of the first round depending on who goes before him. His biggest issue is his size, which is meager to say the least. At 5'8" and just 150 pounds, the young Slovakian is hardly a franchise player in size alone. He is however very much so one of the most talented players in the entire draft and could be a steal if he begins to slip due to his size, or lack of consistency during the regular season. Denis is likely to be back in the VHLM next year unless a team wants him to start for them immediately. He could end up in a good position for him seeing as he could fall to an already good team in the draft.
