Vegas Golden Knights fans will see Juho Piiparinen step onto the ice for the first time on Tuesday. Here's what they can expect from the Golden Knights' first-round pick.
Vegas Golden Knights first-round draft pick Juho Piiparinen is set to make his preseason debut on Tuesday against the San Jose Sharks. The Finnish defenseman was selected in the 2026 NHL Draft following a sequence of roster moves, including a trade sending Pavel Dorofeyev to the New York Rangers.
Piiparinen posted one goal and 12 assists across 15 games with Tappara's U20 team last season. He also represented Finland internationally in the WJC-18 and WJC-20 tournaments prior to joining Vegas for training camp.
