Eeli Tolvanen News
Seattle Kraken winger Eeli Tolvanen had another prolific outing in Monday's 4-0 victory over Montreal and now boasts five points from his first five games with the team. He boosted his tally with a goal and assist Monday, ending up with the game-winner. The 23-year-old has suddenly become a point-per-game player in Seattle after posting just two goals and two assists in 13 games for Nashville earlier in the season. He has also helped out fantasy managers with seven hits in his five Seattle games. It's been a good story, but Tolvanen likely won't be able to keep up his production for much longer, as he's stuck on the third line and is averaging only 12:32 of ice time.
Seattle Kraken winger Eeli Tolvanen made a scoring debut for the team on Sunday, producing the game-winner in a power-play situation in a 4-1 victory over the Islanders. The 23-year-old was picked up from waivers on Dec. 12 but had to wait very patiently for his opportunity to play. It finally came on Sunday when Tolvanen took Morgan Geekie's place in the lineup. He was clearly eager to impress, as Tolvanen added three blocks and two hits to his line in 12:53 of ice time. Tolvanen has always been a talented buy, and he could become a useful piece in deep fantasy leagues if he can carve out a solid role for himself in Seattle.
The Seattle Kraken claimed winger Eeli Tolvanen off waivers on Monday. The former first-round pick was placed on waivers Sunday by Nashville after he had sat out seven consecutive games as a healthy scratch. Tolvanen has shown flashes of brilliance since making his NHL debut in 2018, but he's been struggling for consistency throughout his young career and it kept him from establishing himself on the Predators team. The 23-year-old has skated in just 13 games this season, posting two goals and two assists. His career record reads 25 goals and 51 points in 135 outings. A change of scenery should do good for Tolvanen, but it remains to be seen if he can make himself fantasy-relevant in Seattle.
Nashville Predators winger Eeli Tolvanen will be back on the ice Thursday against Colorado. The 23-year-old has been a healthy scratch for five of the last six games, including the last three. It's the same old story with Tolvanen, as he has a great set of skills but isn't consistent enough to make himself an integral part of the team. This season began well for Tolvanen, with him getting the action started with a three-game point streak, but he quickly cooled down and now enters Thursday's action sitting on a five-game scoring drought. Cody Glass and Alexandre Carrier also get back into the lineup Thursday, while Michael McCarron, Zach Sanford and Jordan Gross come out.
