The Nashville Predators have signed forward Juuso Pärssinen to a three-year, entry-level contract beginning with the 2021-22 season. The Finnish forward — drafted 210th overall at the 2019 NHL Entry Draft — has been playing in the TPS organization in Finland, including at the Liiga level for the past two years.
In the season following his draft year, Pärssinen flourished at the U20 level in Finland, scoring 21 points in 20 games before earning a 31-game stint at the professional level. After notching five goals in the Liiga last year, Pärssinen skyrocketed up TPS’s depth chart.
