Arttu Ruotsalainen's contract with Frölunda HC is running out. As Aftonbladet writes, the Finn is presumed to join EHC Kloten in summer. It would be a return to a former team for the forward; he already suited up for the National League team during the 2022-23 season.

After his stint with Kloten, the 28-year-old spent the following winter as a member of HC Lugano before heading to Sweden in 2024.

With Frölunda, Ruotsalainen has played 36 games this season, recording twelve goals and fifteen assists.
