Oilers' Kasperi Kapanen: Signs one-year contract
Kapanen signed a one-year, $1.3 million contract with Edmonton on Monday, per PuckPedia.
Kapanen compiled six goals, 14 points, 66 shots on net and 88 hits across 67 regular-season appearances between Edmonton and St. Louis in 2024-25. He also added three goals and six points in 12 playoff outings with the Oilers. Kapanen should be in the mix for a middle-six role going into the 2025-26 campaign.

Oilers' Kasperi Kapanen: Manages assist
Kapanen logged an assist in Thursday's 5-4 overtime win over the Panthers in Game 4 of the Stanley Cup Finals.
Kapanen's 8:36 of ice time was lowest among Edmonton forwards, as there was some in-game line shuffling after the Oilers fell behind 3-0 in the first period. The 28-year-old Kapanen has been on the second line on paper lately, but this was his second game in a row under the 10-minute mark. The Finn has contributed six points, 24 shots on net, 42 hits, 18 PIM and a plus-4 rating across 11 playoff outings.

Oilers' Kasperi Kapanen: Adds two helpers in win
Kapanen notched two assists, two shots on goal, five hits and a plus-2 rating in Wednesday's 4-3 overtime win over the Panthers in Game 1 of the Stanley Cup Finals.
Kapanen didn't let a break between rounds slow him down -- he's earned two goals and two assists over his last three games. The winger is up to five points, 22 shots on net, 37 hits and a plus-6 rating over eight contests since entering the lineup for Game 4 of the second round versus the Golden Knights. He doesn't get power-play time, but he's been seeing middle-six minutes at even strength, so he could be an option for DFS during the Cup Finals.

Oilers' Kasperi Kapanen: Gets empty-net goal
Kapanen scored an empty-net goal in a 6-3 win over Dallas in Game 5 on Thursday.
Kapanen has a goal in each of his last two games, and three in seven playoff games. He's often a healthy scratch or a benchwarmer, but he works hard when he does hit the ice. Unfortunately, Kapanen isn't a fantasy option at any time.

Oilers' Kasperi Kapanen: Fills empty cage
Kapanen scored an empty-net goal on three shots and added seven hits in Tuesday's 4-1 win over the Stars in Game 4.
Kapanen has two goals over six games in the playoffs. He took the drama out of the finish in Tuesday's contest, giving the Oilers some breathing room late in the third period. The 28-year-old has added 16 shots on net, 27 hits and a plus-3 rating in the postseason and looks to be a fixture in the lineup now after being a healthy scratch for most of the first two rounds.

Oilers' Kasperi Kapanen: Scores lone goal in win
Kapanen scored a goal on five shots and added three hits in Wednesday's 1-0 overtime win over the Golden Knights in Game 5.
The Oilers continue to get contributions from unlikely sources, with Kapanen being the latest to make his mark this postseason. His goal 7:19 into overtime was his first tally since Jan. 23 versus the Canucks, ending a 32-game goal drought. The winger played alongside Leon Draisaitl in Wednesday's win, and this was just the second appearance of the playoffs for Kapanen. Given his clutch goal, it seems likely he'll stay in the lineup at least to start the Western Conference Finals.

Oilers' Kasperi Kapanen: Picks up assist
Kapanen notched an assist in Wednesday's 3-0 win over the Sharks.
Kapanen ended the regular season in a 31-game goal drought, adding just five assists in that stretch. He may not be guaranteed a spot in the lineup when the Oilers get to full health. Kapanen had 14 points, 66 shots on net, 88 hits and a minus-22 rating over 67 appearances between the Oilers and the Blues in the regular season.

Oilers' Kasperi Kapanen: Sends helper in win
Kapanen recorded an assist and three hits in Tuesday's 3-2 win over the Golden Knights.
This was Kapanen's second assist over the last five games. He earned a bump up to the second line at even strength for this contest, but he was limited to 14:06 of ice time. Still, it's progress for the winger, who has been a healthy scratch on occasion this season. He's managed 13 points, 56 shots on net, 81 hits and a minus-18 rating through 59 appearances between the Oilers and the Blues.

Oilers' Kasperi Kapanen: Ends dry spell with assist
Kapanen notched an assist in Saturday's 5-4 win over the Kraken.
The helper ended a 12-game slump for Kapanen. The 28-year-old would likely be at risk of a healthy scratch if it weren't for the absences of Connor McDavid (lower body) and Leon Draisaitl (undisclosed). Even if Kapanen sticks in the lineup, he's unlikely to add much offense in a bottom-six role. He's at 12 points, 53 shots on net, 72 hits and a minus-17 rating through 55 appearances between the Oilers and the Blues this season.

Oilers' Kasperi Kapanen: Stuck in slump
Kapanen was held off the scoresheet for the eighth straight game in Thursday's 3-2 loss to the Devils.
Kapanen's playing time has mostly held steady, though he's been scratched twice since the 4 Nations Face-Off break, including in Monday's game versus the Sabres. He checked into the lineup Thursday for Mattias Janmark (illness), but it's possible Kapanen will still have to battle with Max Jones and Jeff Skinner for fourth-line minutes when the Oilers' forward group is at full health. Through 50 outings this season, Kapanen has a modest 11 points, 51 shots on net, 71 hits and a minus-17 rating.

Oilers' Kasperi Kapanen: Produces assist Friday
Kapanen notched an assist in Friday's 5-4 loss to the Avalanche.
Kapanen ended a four-game slump when he helped out on a Corey Perry tally in the first period. The 28-year-old Kapanen continues to see limited minutes on the fourth line, but his place in the lineup is safe as long as the Oilers are only carrying 12 healthy forwards. The winger is at 11 points, 46 shots on net, 60 hits and a minus-11 rating over 42 appearances between the Oilers and the Blues this season.

Oilers' Kasperi Kapanen: Back in action
Kapanen (illness) is set to return to the lineup Saturday versus the Maple Leafs, Tony Brar of Oilers TV reports.
Kapanen missed Wednesday's practice and Thursday's game versus the Red Wings due to the illness. The 28-year-old will return to a fourth-line role, so Kapanen won't be a strong fantasy option for Saturday's slate.

Oilers' Kasperi Kapanen: Won't play against Detroit
Kapanen (illness) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against Detroit, Daniel Nugent-Bowman of The Athletic reports.
Kapanen sat out Wednesday's practice session due to an illness, and the issue will force him to miss at least one game. Jeff Skinner will re-enter the lineup in his place Thursday, while Kapanen should tentatively be considered day-to-day ahead of Saturday's home game against Toronto.

Oilers' Kasperi Kapanen: Dealing with illness
Kapanen missed Wednesday's practice due to an illness, per Tony Brar of Oilers TV.
Kapanen has six goals, 10 points, 10 PIM and 54 hits across 38 outings between St. Louis and Edmonton in 2024-25. Jeff Skinner might draw into the lineup Thursday versus Detroit if Kapanen isn't available. However, it's also possible that Skinner will play regardless, and Kapanen might be scratched even if he ends up being an option.

Oilers' Kasperi Kapanen: Ends goal drought
Kapanen scored a goal on two shots, added two hits and went plus-2 in Thursday's 6-2 win over the Canucks.
Kapanen snapped his 10-game goal drought. He was recently scratched twice during the Oilers' most recent road trip, but he's gotten back into the lineup due to Connor McDavid's suspension. Kapanen is still in a bottom-six role that isn't likely to lead to much offense. The winger has six goals, nine points, 38 shots on net, 51 hits and a minus-10 rating over 36 appearances between the Oilers and the Blues this season.

Oilers' Kasperi Kapanen: Slings assist in win
Kapanen recorded an assist in Saturday's 4-3 win over the Blackhawks.
Kapanen has two assists over his last four games. He has just two shots on net over his last seven contests, which won't help him be more productive on offense, though he's also in a fourth-line role. The winger is at eight points, 33 shots on net, 42 hits and a minus-11 rating through 32 appearances between the Oilers and the Blues this season.
