In 2014, he took his game abroad, signing with Amur Khabarovsk of the Kontinental Hockey League (KHL), where he spent one year. Back in his native Finland, Taimi strengthened the roster of Liiga side HIFK during the 2015–16 season and in the early stages of the 2016–17 campaign. In November 2016, he accepted an offer from Kunlun Red Star, the Chinese member of the Kontinental Hockey League.[2]
In the 2017–18 season, Taimi began his third KHL campaign with Slovak based, HC Slovan Bratislava. Appearing in just 13 games, Taimi registered 1 assist before opting to return mid-season to his native Finland and joining original club, Ässät, on a multi-year contract on 5 January 2018.[3]
