Prospect Info: Eeli Tolvanen

[BigFatCat999]

Currently, Eeli is 5th on the Ads in goal scoring...4 points behind #1. Kid is on a rocket like trajectory.

Also, if the Preds lose one more wing it's going to be interesting. Smith is up, Jarnkrok is at wing. You have Salomaki and Gaudreau up, who's left? Grimaldi....and?

We got Watson back plus Rinaldo who I think is healthy now. We've got 14 forwards on the roster now. We'd have to lose 2 forwards for us to call someone else up.

I think with Watson back we don’t see anymore of Rinaldo in Nashville. Not a big fan of gaudreau either. Also with arvy out I think tolvanen has the best chance to come up sooner than later given his AHL play as of late as well. Without arvy in the top six, our top six is not very strong. Tolvanen could be more of help for the offense.

So, has he played left or right wing with Ads?

I am not sure myself. But I found it odd tonight that the admirals went to a shootout and tolvanen did not get any chance to shoot in the shootout..

 

[Pred303]

well they do have 5 forwards with as many or more goals than him

 

[Scoresberg]

I want to see Eeli play a few games in the NHL this season, just to see where he is in terms of development and also to see if we can trade him. Tolvanen would be a good piece to get Stone..

 

[maplepred]

Tolvanen not playing for Milwaukee tonight? Is he hurt? Scratched?

 

[AdmiralsFan24]

He's sick. Seems to be a thing going around. McCollum was supposed to start tonight too but was scratched.

Turris AND Arvy on the IR and no call up for Eeli?

Nope they called up Grimaldi.

Do we really have to go through this every single time someone gets hurt? He'll get called up when they feels he's ready.

If you read the last page of messages, he seems to be doing a little better in the AHL and people were saying he is worth a call up maybe. I just thought with him scoring a little more lately for the Ads, then why not let him have a couple games or so with the Preds with 2 of our top 6 out of the lineup.
A little NHL experience is never a bad thing.

Eeli has always played RW when I see the Admirals, although he is listed as F in the STH stats.

same people that will be putting him in trade proposals when he doesn't set the league on fire. If Forsberg could spend a whole year seasoning in the AHL, Eeli can too, if he's not ready.

Usually I agree but he needs to figure out that speed of the game first before he’s brought up here

 

[King Weber]

Eeli not playing again. Still sick, injured or... called up?

 

[King Weber]

 

[Kaako Kappo]

I wish him the best success.

 

[Scoresberg]

Worth a shot. Our offense has been jackshit the last couple of games. I'm sure he at least won't make it worse.

Also a nice reward for him for not bolting to KHL like Vesalainen did with the Jets.

 

[Gh24]

Isn't Vesalainen on a loan?

 

[jumb0]

Called up, but not in the projected lineup

The Milwaukee offense scored their lone goal against Texas with 4 minutes remaining last night. It was hard to watch! They definitely could have used Eeli's speed and hockey sense.

What?? Are you sure?? That’s craziness. Why not just let him stay in Milwaukee then and play.
He deserves a shot over Grimaldi and gaudreau.
