Brother: Henrik Vesalainen
Plays a versatile, high-tempo offensive game…battles for pucks and space…a beast along the wall and difficult to move in front of the net
—Futureconsiderations.ca 2017
Kristian is a big, forward with good offensive tools including a powerful shot. His release is heavy and he can get it off fairly quickly
