Making a pro debut is huge for any player, but scoring a hat-trick is even better. The Finn rookie Eeli Tolvanen did just that, becoming the youngest player to score a hat-trick in the KHL.

The Preds 2017 first-round pick came out of the gates flying today helping his team seal a 6-1 victory against Dynamo Minsk on Wednesday, ruining the KHL debut of Jhonas Enroth.




Tolvanen played for Sioux City Musketeers in USHL before jumping to the KHL this season, recording 30 goals and 54 points for Sioux City last season.
