Johan Harju Facts

Drafted: 2007 round 6 #167 overall by Tampa Bay Lightning

Harju is a very strong and powerful winger. He has good size and along with that he has good balance on his skates. While hardly being the fastest skater around, Harju has improved his foot-speed and acceleration considerably. Harju's biggest asset is his cannon of a shot. He has a really good release, quick hard and accurate. The fact that he does not at all hesitate to use it is even better. With a good shot it is no surprise that Harju is a very capable goal scorer, but he has also scored goals from close range, on rebounds, showing that he has that scoring mentality of being in the right place at the right moment. Furthermore Harju is strong on the puck and with his technical skills he can put up some nice moves from time to time as well. (EP 2010)
