Veli-Matti Savinainen sanaili NHL-vahvistuksesta MTV:llä: “Puskien takaa”

Roope Määttä |

Mikael Pyyhtiä liittyy Leijonien mukaan sunnuntaina. Vielä Latviaa vastaan hyökkääjä ei ole kokoonpanossa.

Pyyhtiä, 23, matkustaa parasta aikaa Pohjois-Amerikasta Eurooppaan. TPS-kasvatti korvaa Suomen joukkueessa loukkaantuneen Mikael Ruohomaan.

– Tuli ehkä vähän puskien takaa monelle jääkiekkoa seuraavalle. Nimiä, kuten (Ville) Koivunen ja muita sellaisia heitelty ilmoille, ja yhtäkkiä Pyyhtiän nimi ilmaantuikin paperille, Veli-Matti Savinainen sanoi MTV Urheilun studiossa.

Leijonat jätti Koivusen lisäksi myös aiemmin AHL-kautensa päättäneen Jani Nymanin ulos joukkueesta. Pyyhtiä valikoitui tästä kolmikosta, vaikka tiettävästi kuka tahansa heistä olisi ollut käytettävissä.

– Kaveri on pienikokoinen, mutta nopea luistimilla ja älykäs pää. Pystyy varmasti juonikkuudellaan tuomaan jonkinlaista hyökkäyspeliä Leijonien sapluunaan.

Pyyhtiä pelasi NHL:ssä 47 ottelua tehoin 4+3, mutta myös AHL.ssä runkosarjan otteluita kertyi 28. Farmisarjan pudotuspeleissä Columbuksen organisaatiossa kiekkoileva hyökkääjä pelasi kuusi ottelua.
