The Toronto Marlies' youngest player is settling in as one of its most reliable.
Not everyone is playing well for the Toronto Marlies. But the team’s youngest player, Kasperi Kapanen, continues to impress.
In Toronto’s 4-1 loss to the Albany Devils in Game 6 of the second round of the AHL Playoffs, it was Kapanen who created the team’s best chances.
Early on, after receiving an outlet pass for a partial breakaway, Kapanen created a couple of the Marlies’ only first period chances.
To start the second period, with the Marlies trailing 2-0, the 19-year-old winger stopped up off the rush to set up Viktor Loov for another chance.
