Playing career On 28 October 2014, at the age of 17, Tammela made his senior Liiga debut playing with KalPa during the 2014–15 season. He was then selected by the Tampa Bay Lightning in the fourth round, 118th overall, in the 2015 NHL entry draft.

After bouncing between the ECHL and AHL during the 2018–19 season, his contract was terminated by the Lightning on 24 May 2019. He returned to Finland to continue his career in the Liiga, agreeing to a two-year contract with Lukko on 28 May 2019.
