Lindbohm played in his native Finnish Liiga during the 2012–13 and 2013–14 seasons. On March 21, 2014, he signed a three-year, entry-level deal with the St. Louis Blues.[1]
In the 2014–15 season, his first in North America, Lindbohm primarily played with the Blues' AHL affiliate Chicago Wolves, appearing in 53 games. Lindbohm also skated in 23 games for the Blues, scoring two goals and 3 points. Lindbohm scored his first career NHL goal on February 20, 2015, in a 5-1 victory over the Boston Bruins.[2]
On September 11, 2017, the Blues re-signed Lindbohm as a restricted free agent to a one-year, two-way contract.[3] He was re-assigned to continue his tenure with the Chicago Wolves in the 2017–18 season.
On July 27, 2018, as a restricted free agent from the Blues, Lindbohm left North America and signed a one-year contract in Switzerland worth CHF 700,000 with Lausanne HC of the National League (NL).[4] Right after winning gold with Finland at the 2019 IIHF World Championship, Lausanne signed Lindbohm to a one-year contract extension worth CHF 750,000.[5] On May 20, 2020, Lausanne HC announced that Lindbohm would not return to the team for the 2020–21 season.[6]
On July 30, 2020, Lindbohm agreed to a one-year contract with EHC Biel to remain in the National League for the 2020–21 season.[7]
Following his third season in the NL, Lindbohm left as a free agent and returned to his original club, Jokerit, now of the KHL, on a two-year agreement on May 5, 2021.[8] In the 2021–22 season, Lindbohm playing in a top-four shutdown role registered three goals and 8 points from the blueline, helping Jokerit to a second place finish in the regular season.
With Jokerit withdrawing from the KHL playoffs, Lindbohm was released from his contract as a free agent and returned to the NHL in agreeing to a one-year, $750,000 contract with the Florida Panthers for the remainder of the 2021–22 season on March 1, 2022.[9]
As a free agent from the Panthers, Lindbohm returned to Europe and agreed on a one-year contract to play with his first Swedish club, Frölunda HC of the SHL, on August 2, 2022.[10]
