After a spell in the second-tier Mestis with Sport, Iilahti moved to Sweden in 2013, joining Timrå IK of the second-tier HockeyAllsvenskan. After two seasons, he dropped down to the third-tier Hockeyettan with spells at Tranås AIF and Södertälje SK. He then had a brief spell back at HockeyAllsvenskan for Modo Hockey before returning to Finland with Mestis team Jokipojat.
Iilahti made a return to Finland's top-tier league, now known as Liiga, during the 2017–18 Liiga season with Sport, playing 16 games. He spent the 2018–19 season with KalPa of Liiga and IPK of Mestis.
