@Steelhead77 since day one of joining the Dragons, Esa has been an outstanding friend. I really appreciate our regular chats and getting to know Esa over the last seven months. I got a lot of respect for what he's been able to achieve in the SHL and you can really tell he cares about his players always making time for them and looking out for what's best for them in the league. Off the ice Esa has a lot of funny stories to share, gives great advice, is someone who you can have those honest talks with, and is extremely personable making it very easy to build a deeper friendship with. Its all positives with Esa except he's got to learn when to fold in poker
