Jesperi Kotkaniemi received a vote of confidence from Rod Brind'Amour

Since his arrival in Carolina, Jesperi Kotkaniemi has been used a few times in a secondary role. However, Rod Brind'Amour has gone to great lengths to make the Canes' $6.1 million investment pay off.

He paired the former Habs number 15 with Sebastian Aho and Martin Necas, two key offensive pieces in the Raleigh lineup. This is quite an opportunity for KK to make his mark in an offensive role.

A trio of talented young players that could likely make a splash. Let's wait and see!
