Juhamatti Tapio Aaltonen (born June 4, 1985) is a Finnish ice hockey winger, who currently plays for Jokerit of the Kontinental Hockey League (KHL).[1] Known for his skill and skating speed, Aaltonen was drafted to NHL by St. Louis Blues as the 248 overall in 2003 NHL Entry Draft.

After the years he spent with Kärpät, Aaltonen moved to Lahti to play for Pelicans, where he played his breakthrough year scoring 28 goals and 49 points in 58 games in regular season. He signed a five-year contract with Pelicans, but the contract also gave Aaltonen a possibility to play in other leagues.
