I'd put him in the Hischier/Aho range. 40 goals and 70 points wouldn't be crazy coming from him but around 60 points is more likely.
How does his upside compare to guys like Keller, Boeser, Barzal, Aho, Hischier, Pettersson?
Nashville is obviously a very deep team, so it's not like he'll come in and be a top line guy right away, but I've read a lot of good stuff about him.

i think he will score 30-40 a year with 250+ SoG....i have no clue how to predict his play making abilities...all you see this dude do is shoot

I have been wondering the same thing since draftng him late in the 1st round in my points keeper pool.
I packaged Tolvanen with Honka for a 3rd overall pick in 2018 draft which will be Dahlin and company (lottery bottom 4). Hoping for the best player in the deal, so i am going to swing for the fences In a rebuild. But I like tolvanens upside a lot.
Time will tell. I value him less than Aho /hischier /Keller/boeser etc but their upside should be about same as them. Perhaps with more risk? I?m not sure.
Until I see him play in he nhl I would put tolvanen in the same group of prospects as Tippet/ middlestat /Suzuki. perhaps with a shorter wait time
More risk for sure but given what he's done in the KHL passing Tank's and Kuznestov's points records, I'm not sure I'd be saying lower upside than the players listed.
Plus Nashville is a deep good team....but not quite the battle on the wing. Like when Craig Smith is your second line winger, it's not exactly Mount Everest. Plus once there, he gets passes from a great group whereas a Boeser has to do it himself most times.
When does he get added to Yahoo that's the real question
