A fifth-year pro out of Quinnipiac University, Tolkinen has skated in 33 games this season with the Wolf Pack's ECHL affiliate, the Maine Mariners, notching one goal and 11 assists for 12 points and serving 19 minutes in penalties. The 6-3, 190-pound native of Lino Lakes, Minnesota has played in a total of 297 ECHL games in his career, with the Elmira Jackals, Missouri Mavericks, Rapid City Rush, Wheeling Nailers and the Mariners, amassing 15 goals and 56 assists for 71 points, along with 214 PIM.

Prior to turning pro, the 29-year-old Tolkinen played four years at Quinnipiac, suiting up for 135 career games and registering nine goals and 38 assists for 47 points, plus 151 penalty minutes.
