Timeline

1962

Petri Kalevi Skriko (born March 13, 1962) is a Finnish former professional ice hockey player, best remembered for his seasons starring in the NHL for the Vancouver Canucks in the 1980s.

He is currently a scout for the Calgary Flames.

1981

Skriko was a teenage phenomenon in Finland for his hometown club SaiPa Lappeenranta as he emerged as a star at the age of 18 and was named the SM-Liiga Rookie of the Year in 1981.

That summer, he was drafted into the NHL by the Vancouver Canucks as the 157th pick in the 1981 NHL Entry Draft.

In ensuing seasons, his stock continued to rise as he developed into one of the top players in Finland.

He would help Team Finland to a Silver medal at the 1981 World Junior Ice Hockey Championships, and a Bronze at the 1982 World Juniors, where he was named the tournament's top forward.

1982

He dominated the 1982 World Junior Championships – earning top forward honours with 15 points in 7 games – and turned in stellar performances at the 1983 World Championships and the 1984 Olympics.

1983

In 1983–84, he was named to the SM-Liiga All-star team.

He would also play in the 1983, 1985, and 1987 World Championships, and the 1987 and 1991 Canada Cups.

Altogether, he appeared in 55 senior international games for Finland, recording 17 goals and 33 points.

1984

For the 1984–85 season, Skriko signed with the Canucks and went to North America.

He enjoyed a solid rookie season, finishing with 21 goals and 35 points in 72 games, good for eighth on the team in scoring.

He represented Finland at the 1984 Winter Olympics - again leading the team in scoring - and the 1992 Winter Olympics.

1985

In 1985–86, Skriko emerged as a star for the Canucks, leading the team with 78 points.

From 1985 to 1989, he recorded four consecutive 30-goal seasons and twice led the Canucks in scoring.

1986

In November 1986, he recorded three hat tricks in eight days and became the first-ever Canuck named NHL Player of the Month.

1989

In 1989–90, however, his totals fell to 15 goals and 48 points.

1990

After a slow start to the 1990–91 season, Skriko was dealt to the Boston Bruins for a draft pick.

His play picked up somewhat in Boston, as he recorded 19 points in 28 games for the Bruins, and added eight more points in the playoffs, en route to the conference finals.

1991

In 1991–92 he was traded again, to the Winnipeg Jets, finishing the season with three goals in 24 games.

1992

He signed with the San Jose Sharks for 1992–93, but was released two months into the season and returned to Europe.

1993

After a brief stint back in the SM-Liiga, Skriko moved to the Danish league with Herning IK in 1993.

He would be one of the best players ever to play in Denmark, helping his team to four championships and earning two Player-of-the-Year honours.

1999

He retired in 1999, but continued on as the team's head coach, winning another title in that capacity in 2001.

He then returned to Finland to coach SaiPa for three seasons.

In nine seasons in the NHL, Skriko recorded 183 goals and 222 assists for 405 points in 541 games, along with 246 penalty minutes.

Including his time in Europe, he spent 20 seasons as a pro, recording over 1200 points in more than 1000 games.

Skriko is one of the most decorated players in Finnish international hockey history.
