Tappara receives a staggering reinforcement from North America.

Tampa Bay Lightning announced late Monday that they will loan Benjamin Rautiainen to Tappara’s Liiga team for the upcoming season.

The 21-year-old Rautiainen, who had a strong NHL training camp, is a tremendous addition for Tappara. The young top prospect won the Liiga scoring title last season with 77 points in 59 games, scoring 25+52.

Rautiainen impressed NHL scouts at the recently concluded training camp. The Finnish winger was among the last players cut from the final NHL roster.
