Maybe Kapanen had problems finding proper travel arrangements between Helsinki and Pittsburgh? I assume normally there are direct flights Finland-US - but now most/all are cancelled?

I don’t see any other players missing due to visa/travel issues.

Anyone know if Kapanen is in for the Pens?

Tsn is showing him on the IR for Visa problems?

- annoyed

TSN is showing that Evander Kane has Visa and Mastercard problems.

I doubt this would’ve happened if he was still in Toronto.

"Hi, I'd like to apply for a visa to go to Pittsburgh."

no idea what these 'immigration issues' are -- i assume kapanen was already in Europe when traded by Leafs to Pens and due to coronavirus the paperwork now had to be done differently than other years maybe?

Leaf fans hating on Freddy is so typical Leafs fan.
- Zezel


I would not hate him if he didn't whiff on at least one goal in each critical game. This happened.

his number jan-march in 2020 were virtually identical to Hutchinson's. He is simply not a very good goalie, who sometimes has a great game.

I hope they find a replacement next season. Would be great if we could somehow develop our own goalies.

According to this website (which I found on Google - no idea if it is legit or not), Kapanen is in Pittsburgh:

https://pittsburghhockeyn...tatement-kasperi-kapanen/

Kasperi Kapanen

Sullivan also noted Kasperi Kapanen arrived from Finland on Saturday, received his first COVID test on Sunday, and has entered the quarantine process.

The team has Kapanen penciled in as the top-line RW beside Sidney Crosby and Jake Guenzel. Kapanen will miss the start of the regular season as he must spend at least a week in quarantine.

Last season, Kapanen scored 13 goals and 23 assists with the Toronto Maple Leafs. He was acquired from Toronto for the Penguins’ 2020 first-round pick (15th overall) and a gaggle of prospect swaps.

Sheldon Keefe says #Leafs aren't going with a "taxi squad" designation; they're going with the "Stay Ready Squad."

Shout out to Steve Nash for that inspiration.

It will be good to get the first loss of the season out of the way - that way, guys don't have to worry about it.

I agree with the PO stumbles, could argue the rest but who gives a (frank). I think Freddie has been reading all the chatter and has lost his mojo, not expecting a good year.
