Lauri Pajuniemi, the 20-year old winger has his sights set on the NHL but understands it takes time. Time is something the Rangers and Pajuniemi have at the moment. I reached out to Lauri to catch up with him on his breakout season, his national team debut and his military service. Most importantly we discussed his future with the Rangers and where it stands at the moment.
Rangers want Pajuniemi to spend another season in Liiga
Rangers management has indicated they want him to stay in Finland for another year when discussing Pajuniemi’s future with him. “We agree that (another year in Liiga) is the best for my development”, Pajuniemi added.
