In order for people to understand what kind of gem Artturi Lehkonen actually is, I have taken a deeper look through his career to see what we can expect for the future in regards to his skill and development.
The Early Years
Lehkonen came up through the system of a classic hockey club: TPS Turku. TPS is a 10-time champion of SM-Liiga and is considered the most successful team in league history. One of its most notable alumni is former (and forever) Montreal Canadien Saku Koivu.
In 2009-10 he played in the TPS’s U16 team; the next year he managed the feat of playing for U16, U18, and U20 teams.
