Atro Leppänen has been tearing up the Finnish Liiga when it comes to points as a defenseman this season. Currently at 47, he is only seven points shy of the all-time record for his position. As Iltalehti writes, the 26-year-old might not end up getting the record, though, because he may move to the National League for the rest of the season instead. His club, Vassan Sport, is in need of money.
A member of Sport since 2023, Leppänen has reportedly signed with Örebro HK (SHL) next season, so it would only be a short stay in Switzerland.
