| Jesperi Kotkaniemi | Note | Sharp, quick pass to the slot and hits the stick of Nevasaari. Great pass for an easy goal. | Brian Fogarty | Finland vs Sweden (5 Nations 2018) | Video (With Replay) | 2/15/2018 |
| Jesperi Kotkaniemi | Note | Constantly involved in the play, gets a loose puck behind the net and a quick wraparound goal. That's a goal and two assists in the first period, so far. | Brian Fogarty | Finland vs Sweden (5 Nations 2018) | Video (With Replay) | 2/15/2018 |
| Jesperi Kotkaniemi | Note | Working the left point on the powerplay, just made two fantastic plays to keep the puck in the offensive zone, on the first he zipped a long diagonal pass to find a dangerous chance at the far circle. | Brian Fogarty | Finland vs Sweden (5 Nations 2018) | Video (With Replay) | 2/15/2018 |
| Jesperi Kotkaniemi | Note | Skates the puck though the offensive zone like he's on a mission. So determined, fast. Good puck carrier. | Brian Fogarty | Finland vs Sweden (5 Nations 2018) | Video (With Replay) | 2/15/2018 |
| Jesperi Kotkaniemi | Note | All alone in the high slot, Nordgren finds him, and he sends the water bottle for a ride. | Brian Fogarty | Finland vs Sweden (5 Nations 2018) | Video (With Replay) | 2/15/2018 |
| Jesperi Kotkaniemi | Summary | A constant presence in the game, always working, always around the puck. Passes were sharp and on target, willing to take punishment to get to the traffic areas and made good plays when he was there. This was a multi-point game where everything seemed to work for him. Skating was good but didn't stand out as being a superior skill, but his high work rate and game awareness certainly did. | Brian Fogarty | Finland vs Sweden (5 Nations 2018) | Video (With Replay) | 2/15/2018 |
