Playing career
Nousiainen played his first Liiga games with KalPa in the 2018–19 season, appearing in six regular-season contests.[1] He was later selected 119th overall by the Los Angeles Kings in the 2019 NHL Entry Draft.[2]
In his third full season with KalPa in 2021–22, Nousiainen was named an alternate captain and posted 4 goals and 14 points in 35 games. On 28 March 2022, Nousiainen left KalPa and moved to North America, joining the Kings organization in signing an amateur tryout contract with primary AHL affiliate, the Ontario Reign, for the remainder of the season.[3] Nousiainen was then promptly signed to a three-year, entry-level contract with the Kings commencing in the 2022–23 season, on 31 March 2022.[4]
After the 2023–24 season, having completed his third season with the Reign, Nousiainen opted to mutually terminate the remaining year of his contract with the Los Angeles Kings on 30 May 2024.[5] In returning to his native Finland, Nousiainen was signed to a one-year contract to resume his career in the Liiga with Lukko on 3 June 2024.[6]
On May 7, 2025, Nousiainen departed from Lukko and signed a two-year deal with another Liiga team, KooKoo.[7]
