Today marks a special day as the first ever non-Finnish player joins HAVU. Joel "Jtorro" Tourunen who most recently played for FILADELPHIA, joins HAVU's NHL roster. This move is also significant from the organization stand point in terms of internationalization.
"Jtorro is already familiar player to us and has won numerous championships with FILADELPHIA. We were in need of a player of high caliber to complete our roster for next season of ECL, and that's what we got. In-game Joel is very animated player who will hype up his team mates, that is something that will be core ingredient for us to return to the top."
- Tuukka "FlyerKungen" Kuha, Captain of HAVU NHL
"I'm very excited to join HAVU. We have faced each other in multiple grand finals and this off-season provided perfect moment to make the switch. I feel that we have assembled a winning roster where players also have mutual respect."
