Looks a very impressive signing.. to play in that league for 10 straight and hang around and be part of championship success there must be some about him.. and he's still only 29!

Put up some very decent numbers, including goals, in a league where points don’t come easy. Topped his team scoring a few years ago, has won championships in one of Europe’s best leagues and he has a big body too at a good age. Could be a shrewd piece of business by Doucet.

Welcome to Nottingham Simon. To have played in the top league in Finland for 10 years is impressive, obviously his production has dropped off but if he’s been directed to play a more defensive role then this will be the case. I believe he’ll be able to produce at our level though, at 29 I’m hopeful he will be a brilliant signing.
With Suoranta and Boivin already signed, and the rumoured LW still to be announced, we should have some great depth on the left side. Hopefully Doucet has some a few more aces up his sleeve for the last 4 players.

Very good signing this. Would expect elite defensive traits & some proper points. Another at a really nice age as well. Hopefully he revels in the more creative role.

He has decent numbers from a very skilled league and had a fantastic 2016-2017 season where he represented Finland internationally, but I can't help notice amount of games played.
From what I can tell his missing games are as follows:
2020-2021: 16 Missed Games 2019-2020: 16 Missed Games 2018-2019: 37 Missed Games 2017-2018: 38 Missed Games
A quick google says that he took a season-ending injury early in 2017-2018 after a very good start and it looks it may have had a lasting impact on his later career.
Glass half-full, I'm hoping he's fully fit and recovered and ready for a productive full season.
