The Kraken's most used and most consistent line throughout the season was Tolvanen with Yanni Gourde and Oliver Bjorkstrand, a trio that will likely see a lot of time together this upcoming season as well.

Tolvanen will draw back in for the Kraken's regular season finale on Thursday after missing their previous game for an undisclosed reason. Tolvanen has 16 goals and 25 assists in 80 games this season.

Tolvanen's absence from Tuesday's lineup is a surprise, with the team not announcing it prior to warmups. Cale Fleury will draw into the Kraken lineup as they opt to dress seven defensemen.

Tolvanen is battling an undisclosed ailment and his status is up in the air ahead of Friday's matchup against the St. Louis Blues. After scoring seven points (2G / 5A) during a five-game point streak, Tolvanen has been held to only one point (1G / 0A) in his last five games.

Tolvanen has two goals and two assists (four points) in 13 games with the Predators this season. Since being selected No.30 overall in 2017, Tolvanen has picked up 51 points (25G / 26A) in 135 career NHL games. To make room for Tolvanen, the Kraken waived Karson Kuhlman.

Tolvanen has scored just one goal with one assist in his last 15 games. He's been forced into a bottom-6 role, which doesn't really suit his game and has limited him to just 12:11 TOU/gm over that span. Mathieu Olivier will replace him in the lineup.

Tolvanen was hurt early in Sunday's game in Minnesota but will be available for Tuesday's game vs. San Jose. Tolvanen has had a quiet start to the season, scoring just one goal with no assists in six games. His shot volume (3.33 SOG/gm) is an encouraging sign that the goals could start to pour in.
