The Nashville Predators recalled top prospect Eeli Tolvanen from the AHL on Saturday, the team announced.
The 19-year-old has tallied four goals and 11 points in 21 games with the Milwaukee Admirals this season.
Tolvanen made headlines overseas a year ago while playing with the Helsinki Jokerit, breaking the KHL record for points by a teenager with 36, which was previously held by Evgeny Kuznetsov.
Selected 30th overall by the Predators in 2017, many considered Tolvanen to be the steal of the draft following his banner season with the Jokerit.
