Tolvanen had a nice season, scoring 11 goals with 11 assists in 40 games. However, according to the Predators projected lineup, they will go with a heavier lineup which would have Tolvanen sitting in Viktor Arvidsson's return. Taking Tolvanen out will surely hurt the Predators' power-play.

Tolvanen has two points (1G / 1A) in four games with the Predators and 12 points (4G / 8A) in 24 games with Milwaukee this season. Tolvanen had six points (1G / 5A) in five games with Finland at the World Juniors last year.

Tolvanen did not do much during his call-up, scoring just one goal on two shots and adding an assist in four games. Tolvanen is one of the NHL’s top prospects but still needs a little more time in the AHL. His demotion is a good sign that the Predators will get Kyle Turris back on Thursday.

Tolvanen has registered 11 points (4G / 7A) in 21 games with the Admirals this season. The former first-round pick has been recalled to try and spark a Predators offence that was shutout on Thursday and is without Kyle Turris and Viktor Arvidsson.

Tolvanen, 18, was the No.30 overall pick in last summer’s draft and joins the Predators after one year in the KHL. Tolvanen scored 21 goals with 17 assists (38 points) in 51 games with Jokerit—adding three goals in four playoff games. The rookie winger is expected to skate on the Predators top line with Ryan Johansen and Viktor Arvidsson.
