Luostarinen is listed on the Panthers' training camp roster.
EDGE Analysis
Luostarinen was loaned to KalPa in Finland back in August, but he'll be brought into training camp with the Panthers. He was part of the return from the Hurricanes in the Vincent Trocheck deal. A second-round pick from 2017, Luostarinen may be in the mix for a job on the Opening Night roster.

Luostarinen will start the year on loan with KalPa (Finland).
EDGE Analysis
Luostarinen came up through the ranks with KalPa's youth system and spent three years playing with the senior team from 2016-19. In eight appearances with Carolina before being traded to Florida as part of the Vincent Trocheck deal, the 21-year-old winger registered one assist, nine shots and nine hits while averaging 9:59 of ice time.

The Hurricanes sent Luostarinen, Erik Haula, Lucas Wallmark and prospect Chase Priski to Florida for Vincent Trocheck on Monday, Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet reports.
EDGE Analysis
Luostarinen -- a 2017 second-round pick -- has spent a bulk of the season with AHL Charlotte, and he's accrued 25 points through 44 games. The 21-year-old center appears to have plenty of upside, as he posted 36 points over 54 games with KalPa Kuopio of the Finnish League in his age-20 season. Luostarinen will likely need the rest of the season to develop in the minors, but he should have a shot at making the Panthers' 23-man roster next year.

Luostarinen was sent down to the AHL on Friday.
EDGE Analysis
Clark Bishop was called up to center the fourth line in Luostarinen's place. The Finnish forward recorded one assist over eight games with Carolina, and there's a good chance the Hurricanes keep him under the 10-game threshold so as to not burn off a year of eligibility.

The Hurricanes called up Luostarinen from AHL Charlotte on Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
This will be the second stint this season with the big club, as Luostarinen has notched an assist in while averaging 10:23 of ice time in three games this year. The Finn has been solid in the AHL as well, racking up eight points in 13 games this campaign. His first chance to fit into the lineup is Tuesday against the Blackhawks.

The Hurricanes reassigned Luostarinen to AHL Charlotte on Tuesday, Michael Smith of the Hurricanes' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Luostarinen will continue to be one of the first skaters Carolina turns to when dealing with injuries up front, so he may not remain in the minors for long. The 21-year-old winger picked up one assist while averaging 10:23 of ice time in three appearances during his first NHL stint.

The Hurricanes recalled Luostarinen from AHL Charlotte on Wednesday, Michael Smith of the Hurricanes' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Luostarinen has been pretty productive in the minors this season, notching five goals and seven points in 10 games. The 2017 second-round pick is expected to make his NHL debut Thursday against the Rangers.

Luostarinen signed a three-year, entry-level contract with the Hurricanes on Thursday.
EDGE Analysis
Carolina selected Luostarinen in the second round of the 2017 NHL Entry Draft. The 20-year-old forward spent the 2018-19 campaign playing for KalPa of the Finnish Liiga, notching 15 goals and 36 points in 54 contests. The Hurricanes have a lot of depth up front and Luostarinen will likely need time to adapt to the smaller North American ice sheet, so he'll almost certainly spend most of the 2019-20 season in the minors.
