New Jersey Devils Sign Aarne Talvitie

March 25, 2021 at 9:39 am CDT | by Gavin Lee 4 Comments

The New Jersey Devils have added another college prospect to the mix, signing Aarne Talvitie to a two-year entry-level contract. The deal begins in the 2021-22 season, but the young forward has signed an AHL contract for the rest of this year and will join the Binghamton Devils after a short quarantine.

Talvitie, 22, was a sixth-round selection of the Devils back in 2017 and is coming off his junior season at Penn State. In 21 games this season he recorded seven goals and 13 points but also contributed just as much in the defensive zone where he routinely shadowed opponents. That two-way game has become Talvitie’s calling card, as it was during the 2019 World Juniors when he captained Finland to a gold medal.

During that tournament, despite Finland having top NHL draft picks like Kaapo Kakko, Rasmus Kupari, and Eeli Tolvanen, it was Talvitie that drew rave reviews for his play. He led the Finns with four goals and trailed only Aleksi Hoponiemi in scoring.

By that point, it was clear that Talvitie would have an NHL contract waiting for him whenever he chose to leave school and now he has finally signed it. He will be foregoing his senior year to start his professional journey, testing himself first at the AHL level.

      @forwhomjoshbelltolled – Treatment options? Ointment or suppository. ;)

      Aarentalvitie is the treatment for Sharangovich. But don’t take it if you have Kukkonen or if you already take Maltsev to control your Vatanen.

      @forwhomjoshbelltolled – And, if something goes awry, you’ll have to phone The Twins, for legal advice. They’ve got your back, not your wallet! And, if all does go well, you can treat yourself to a Jake’s Shake tomorrow/today (depending on your time zone)!
