June 2025 – Selected 108th overall, Benjamin Rautiainen is now a member of the Tampa Bay Lightning. Mark Henry
June 2025 – Finnish overager Benjamin Rautiainen hopes to hear his name called on draft day this year, and given the showing he had in the Liiga in 2024-2025, he has certainly increased his chances.
The young forward scored 10 goals and added 23 assists over 50 games on the year, good for sixth in scoring on Tappara and third in the league by a U-20 player. Going back to 2009, Rautiainen’s point-per-game this season was the 29th best by a U-20 player in the Liiga, just ahead of 18-year-old Anton Lundell and 19-year-old Markus Granlund. Not that that alone is enough to brand Rautiainen as an NHL lock, but certainly a player deserving of a call to the podium on draft day. Alex Wyatt
