Playing career edit
After his first season with Zug in 2012–13, Suri gained NHL attention and signed a two-year entry-level contract with the Tampa Bay Lightning on June 13, 2013.[1] However, with an existing contract signed with Zug and at the time no transfer agreement with between the Swiss and International Hockey Federations, Suri's contract was voided a month later on July 12, 2013.[2]
Harbouring no ill will, Suri responded with a then career high 36 points in the 2013–14 season for Zug and was later signed to a four-year contract extension with an NHL-out clause on September 30, 2014.[3]
At the conclusion of the 2018–19 season, Suri left Zug as a free agent and joined HC Lugano on a two-year deal through the 2020–21 season.[4]
International play edit
Suri competed in the 2013 IIHF World Championship as a member of the Switzerland men's national ice hockey team, finishing in Switzerland's highest ever position with a silver medal.
