I just had to look up Jokiharju, while I know exactly who Heiskanen is. If nothing else that should tell you something about their perceived trade value.
Is Heiskanen that much better than Jokiharju ? Or are they closer than it appears.....

- I said... "God damn this tablet is heavy!"
I've been reading up on Jokiharju after seeing his name pop up a few times on this site. He's been getting some high praise. Heiskanen has name value and overall, more than likely is the better player. Jokiharju is more of an unknown but everything I've read on him says he's got top pairing potential with 40+ upside. If both were available to draft, though, Heiskanen would be my go-to guy.

Heiskanen is the much safer choice but Jokiharju's offensive upside is very similar.
I drafted Jokihaju in a couple of my keepers last summer in my drafts so I am well aware of who he is. I can see him and Boqvist being leaders on the back end for Chicago for years. He's legit and undervalued in many leagues. Heiskanen is the better known asset for obvious reasons, but Jokiharju is no slouch himself. He's not at the same level as Heiskanen at this point, but he's closer then many know and for those who don't know him, start reading. You will be hearing his name a lot more once he gets to Chicago in a couple years.

I think the Blackhawks are expecting Boqvist and Jokiharju to battle for a roster spot a year from now. Some are even suggesting Jokiharju could play this season. My opinion is that he could get call-ups during the season if he plays in the AHL but he's not ready for full-time job yet - but I think he will be a year from now. I believe he was loaned to the Winterhawks which would make him eligible for the AHL, although I'm not 100% sure about that. Either way, he needs to play pro hockey this season, there's nothing more for him in the WHL.
I dont understand how so many have never heard of him before. He was a 1st round pick a year ago for god sakes LOL! It's not like he was a 6th round pick who came from nowhere.

"Cleavage is like the sun. You can look, but dont stare.. Unless you're wearing sunglasses."
We will have a better idea after Jokiharju’s 1st pro year. It’s not all the guys who can reproduce their junior performances to the pro level... I remember a Ryan Murphy who was a beast in junior and now ...As for Jokiharju, i think is the real deal but for now, Heiskanen is the safest pick.
Great feedback guys ! It was my opinion also that Jokiharju’s offensive potential is not that far off Heiskanen ‘s but that Heiskanen was somewhat a safer pick . I’ll treat Joki accordingly .
Some guys in my league were treating him as a throw-in in some deals . Not so !

Joki also is in a better situation in Chicago where the 1 spot is open..

Just wanted to revive this thread from a month ago for the people who didn't know who Jokiharju is...
Although, to be fair, I was expecting him to start the season in the AHL, so I can't say I saw it coming either.
I remember this thread ... I also remember debating between Dylan Sikura and Jokiharju for my last prospect pick, and I went with Sikura. Doesn't always work out, although Joki is still unowned waiting for next year's prospect draft. I'm assuming he will be a hot commodity.
