Topi Rönni (born May 4, 2004) is a Finnish professional ice hockey player for Tappara Tampere of the Liiga.
Playing career
The Calgary Flames drafted Rönni in the second round as the 59th player in the 2022 NHL Entry Draft. Rönni missed most of the 2022–2023 season due to a knee injury and illness.[1] During the season, he played 22 regular season matches in the SM league with five points. Rönni didn't play a match in the playoffs, but Tappara won the Finnish championship at the end of the season.[2] In the Champions Hockey League (CHL), Rönni played five matches and scored one assist. Tappara won the CHL championship.[3]
In May 2023, he signed a two-year contract extension with the club.[4]
Rönni has been accused of rape in the Helsinki District Court in the autumn of 2023. He is out of Tappara's operations while the case is being processed.[5]
Personal life
In his youth, Rönni was also involved in athletics with Tampereen Pyrintö, where he won silver in the Finnish discus throw championship competition as a 14-year old.[6]
