Benjamin Rautiainen

Twenty-five goals and 77 points in 59 games at 20, first in the league in scoring and the most by any player before his 21st birthday, past Saku Koivu’s 74 in 1994-95. It was the first 70-point season in Liiga since 2007-08. Seven points in 18 playoff games as Tappara won the championship. A fourth-round pick of Tampa Bay in 2025, signed in May, he played in the Lightning’s camp and preseason and was loaned back to Tappara for the season.
