How to read this: the headline is the net wealth (nettoformue) recorded for Patrick Thoresen on Norway’s official tax list for the 2024 income year, as printed by a national newspaper. It is what the Norwegian Tax Administration assessed from the tax return: assets minus debts, at tax values. Homes are counted at a fraction of their market price and shares at a discount, and money held in a personal holding company shows up only through the value of its shares, so the real figure is usually higher. This is an official tax figure, not a journalist’s estimate, and we show it as published. The figure was published in NOK; the US dollar amount next to it is our simple conversion at the European Central Bank reference rate of November 6, 2026, not a separate estimate.

Patrick Thoresen is a Norwegian former professional ice hockey left winger from Hamar. He played in the NHL for the Edmonton Oilers and Philadelphia Flyers, finished sixth in KHL scoring in his first season with Salavat Yulaev Ufa, and represented Norway at the 2010 and 2014 Winter Olympics. His last club was Djurgårdens IF in Sweden.

Norway's official tax list for the 2024 income year records his net wealth at NOK 26.4 million, about $2.8 million at the November 6, 2026 exchange rate. TV 2 printed the figure on December 3, 2025 in its tables of Norway's biggest sports names, alongside taxable income of NOK 1,304,157.

What the tax list shows

TV 2's table for income year 2024 lists Thoresen with income NOK 1,304,157 and net wealth NOK 26,389,380, registered in Hamar. The list figures come straight from the Norwegian Tax Administration, which publishes every taxpayer's income, wealth and tax each year.

Net wealth on the list is assets minus debts at tax values. Homes are counted well below market price and shares at a discount, and money held through a holding company appears only through the value of its shares.

Career at a glance

Thoresen started at his hometown club Storhamar, then played junior hockey in the QMJHL, where he led the league in assists in 2002-03. After two seasons with Djurgården he signed with Edmonton in 2006 and scored his first NHL goal that October.

Claimed by Philadelphia in 2008, he became the first Norwegian to play in the NHL playoffs. He then scored 63 points in 48 games for Lugano in Switzerland and 57 in 56 regular-season games in his first KHL season, before finishing his career back in Sweden.

About this figure

Norway publishes every taxpayer's income, net wealth and tax paid each year, and newspapers comb the lists for famous names. TV 2 printed Thoresen's figures for the 2024 income year. Net wealth on the list is the figure the Tax Administration assessed from his tax return, assets minus debts.

Tax values are lower than market values, especially for homes and shares, so the figure understates what Thoresen would be worth if everything were sold. We show it in Norwegian kroner, as published, with a rough US dollar conversion at the November 6, 2026 exchange rate. Income figures mentioned on this page are earnings for one year, not wealth.
