Playing career
Undrafted, he previously played professionally in the Liiga for Tappara.[1] In his rookie season with Tappara he helped the team claim the Liiga title adding 1 goal in 10 post-season games.
In the following two seasons, Luoto established himself as a two-way forward and matched his offensive totals with 16 points in each campaign. On 15 June 2019, Luoto was signed to a three-year, two-way contract with the Winnipeg Jets, joining former junior teammate, Patrik Laine.[2]
After competing in his first training camp with the Winnipeg Jets, on 1 October 2019, Luoto was re-assigned to familiarise himself with the North American style to AHL affiliate, the Manitoba Moose to begin the 2019–20 season.[3] On 7 November 2019, after recording 3 assists in 9 games with the Moose, Luoto received his first recall to NHL by the Jets.[4] The following day Luoto made his NHL debut with the Jets on the fourth-line in a 4-1 victory over the Vancouver Canucks at Bell MTS Place.[5]
