| Janne Kuokkanen | Note | Kuokkanen operated at speed. Doesn’t slow down with the puck. Able to get hard shots on net in stride. | Zachary DeVine | NJEC 2016 - Team Finland Practice | Live | 8/4/2016 |
| Janne Kuokkanen | Note | Kuokkanen is being keyed in on by Team Canada, interested to see how he can deal with all the attention defensively. | Zachary DeVine | NJEC 2016 - Team Canada vs Team Finland | Live | 8/2/2016 |
| Janne Kuokkanen | Note | Kuokkanen not a blazing fast skater, play going end to end and he’s having a bit of trouble | Zachary DeVine | NJEC 2016 - Team Canada vs Team Finland | Live | 8/2/2016 |
| Janne Kuokkanen | Summary | Really impressive camp for Kuokkanen. He played the game he needed to, was part of solid plays on both ends of the ice. He has some skating issues but nothing that can’t be fixed with a summer or two of keen attention. His game doesn’t slow down with the puck on his stick. | Zachary DeVine | NJEC 2016 - NJEC | Live | 8/2/2016 |
| Janne Kuokkanen | Note | Kuokkanen’s release is excellent. Skating power could be refined, but skates well overall. | Zachary DeVine | NJEC 2016 - Finland Practice | Live | 7/29/2016 |
| Janne Kuokkanen | Note | Great dangle to get to the net. | Brian Fogarty | Sweden vs Finland (U18s 2016) | Video (With Replay) | 5/4/2016 |
| Janne Kuokkanen | Summary | Smart, determined player who works hard all over the ice. Created two goals in the game by driving into the offensive zone and making smart plays, one by driving the net, the other by swiveling around to find Puljujarvi. Untapped potential, I think, for a top-six, intelligent player. | Brian Fogarty | Sweden vs Finland (U18s 2016) | Video (With Replay) | 5/4/2016 |
