Janne Niinimaa Finland

Birthyear: 1975-05-22 Birthplace: Raahe, FIN

Age: 38 Nation: Finland

Position: D Shoots: L

Height: 186 cm / 6'1" Weight: 100 kg / 220 lbs
Youth Team: Kärpät Contract: 12/13
Drafted: 1993 round 2 #36 overall by Philadelphia Flyers

Spelarprofil på svenska
A large body, Niinimaa is primarily an offensive defenseman. His hard shot and accurate passes make him very valuble on the powerplay.

On the downside, Niinimaa is prone to defensive braincramps and lapses. Doesn't use his size effectively at times.
