Exclusive: Rangers defenseman Tarmo Reunanen on Kakko and his future

Four years ago, the New York Rangers selected a young Finnish defenseman in the 4th round, Tarmo Reunanen. At the time, it was a bit of a gamble, with the youngster coming off a season riddled with injuries. But 4 years later, the now 22-year old is determined to make the team and play in the NHL. I sat down with him and talked about his childhood, his hockey career and more.

Joining TPS

Growing up in the small town of Naantali, about 10 miles from Turku, young Tarmo was always a fan of TPS.
