Kasperi Kapanen Moves To First Line Saturday
28 seconds agoEdmonton Oilers right wing Kasperi Kapanen will skate on the first line in Saturday's matchup against the Rangers. The Oilers are without Zach Hyman (undisclosed) and Viktor Arvidsson (undisclosed), opening the door for Kapanen to play a larger role. Ryan Nugent-Hopkins and Connor McDavid will join him on the line. Kapanen's fantasy stock receives a boost by the move, but he's more expected to be a physical force on the line. The Finnish forward registered four hits in 12:10 of ice time when he made his Oilers debut in Thursday's 5-3 loss to Minnesota.
