As Tamedia's sports desk worked out, Tömmernes is averaging 34 shifts and 25:33 minutes of ice time per game, which is over two minutes more compared to the league's runner-up and compatriot, HCD's Magnus Nygren.

Due to a knee injury in autumn that kept him out of the Grenats' lineup for some weeks, the 29-year-old Swedish international has appeared in only 32 games since the beginning of the season, recording nine goals and 15 assists while posting a plus-16 rating.
