Drafted
2002 round 7 #218 overall by New Jersey Devils

A big winger with good skating ability. Has a bad temper and does take a lot of unneccessary penalties. Skilled offensively, where he likes to attack the net. Good physical player. Sometimes play right on the edge of the rules. Bit of a late bloomer. Energy player, who always works hard.

Son: Kasper Pikkarainen
