It seems most of the hockey universe is ready to write off Kasperi Kapanen, from most Pittsburgh fans that I talk to they sincerely believe he’s a nothing burger, it seems that every hockey journalist thinks the same.
Not so fast, the kid is on the brink of that breakout if not on it already, what makes me say that? Surely I can’t think this blip of a hot streak is anything special, as he’s had them before, then followed that hot streak with a cold streak the size of Antarctica.
So lets dig just a bit, across Kapanen’s last 4 games he has 5 PTS, with 4G and 1A.
