That's one way to burst onto the pro hockey scene.
Eeli Tolvanen notched a hat trick and four points in his first KHL game with Jokerit in a 6-1 rout of Dynamo Minsk on Wednesday, becoming the youngest player to collect three goals in a game in the history of the league.
The 18-year-old - whom the Nashville Predators drafted 30th overall in June - signed with the Finnish club last month after failing to meet the admission requirements of Boston College, the school he committed to in June of last year.
Here's his first KHL goal. Safe to say the kid can snipe.
