Piiparinen is a puck-mover first and foremost. He excels at breaking the puck out from under pressure, often inviting forecheckers in before dishing pucks through them. In particular, his ability to hook pucks to the middle or across the ice from near the boards and under heavy pressure stood out consistently. He defers to others when it’s the right play and moves the puck with pace, but also knows when to slow down and regroup.
