Tomi Kristian Kallio (born January 27, 1977, in Turku, Finland), is a professional Finnish ice hockey player. He is currently a right winger for the Frölunda Indians in the Swedish Elitserien.

Kallio was drafted 81st overall by the Colorado Avalanche in the 1995 NHL Entry Draft and began his professional career with TPS of the SM-liiga and spent five seasons there, winning the championship trophy in 1999 and 2000. He then moved to the National Hockey League with the Atlanta Thrashers who claimed him from Colorado in the 1999 NHL Expansion Draft. He spent two seasons in Atlanta before he was traded with Pauli Levokari to the Columbus Blue Jackets for Petteri Nummelin and Chris Nielsen. He would play just 12 games for Columbus before claimed off waivers by the Philadelphia Flyers, playing just seven games before moving to Sweden to play for Västra Frölunda HC where he continues to play and is in his sixth season with the team. He has won the Le Mat Trophy twice with Frölunda, in 2003 and 2005.

Kallio's three-year extension from 2006 is expiring in 2009, but Kallio already has his mind set on reaching new agreement with Frölunda. [1]
