Oliver Kapanen’s SHL debut worth the wait for Timrå’s head coach

3a in 3 SHL games

"In the press box there were quite a few scouts praising Kapanen, who had a great solo raid but finished by hitting the bar instead of the net. Most of them praising the centre as having the potential to be, or already being, the best player in the SHL this year."

Pair of Hage Goals Propel Michigan Past Penn State - University of Michigan Athletics

"Michigan's offense sputtered along for the bulk of the period with the score tied until Hage flexed his offensive muscle once again. The freshman stickhandled his way up the ice with his linemates flanking him on each wing. After dashing toward the right side of the cage and circling the net, Hage quickly tucked a wraparound effort between the pipe and the pad to put Michigan back in front, 6-5, with 6:32 left in regulation.

There and Back Again: Oliver Kapanen’s return to a familiar place

"Timrå IK is really Kimmo Kapanen’s team. He was a fan favourite for a couple of seasons and Oliver grew up at the ice rink, and in the locker room. Oliver had clearly stated that he wanted to play for Timrå during his career. While that was a big factor in going back to Europe. it seems that a lot of trust is being placed by Montreal in the hands of two former NHL players: Kimmo Kapanen (the GM) and Olli Jokinen (the coach)."

 

Michael Hage looks like the answer for second line centre vacancy

"Montreal has many pieces set in place, but Kirby Dach and Alex Newhook's inability to cement themselves as the Canadiens' second-line pivot has left them needing a solution. Ivan Demidov is certainly a solution, but I think that he will be much more dangerous on the wing. Hage, however, looks comfortable down the middle and his brilliant skating will ensure that he can keep pace on the backcheck, should he need to."

"With scouts and staff from different teams in attendance in Ängelhom on Thursday night, especially scouts that had come back from Finland just the day before, the consensus was that Koivu was a good pick in the third round for Montreal. The process will be long, similar to Oliver Kapanen and Artturi Lehkonen, but in the end there might be an NHL player there."

Curious Jacob Fowler not on the USA WJC team. With Trey Augustine back as the starter.

9 minutes ago, Prime Minister Koivu said:

The joke about height is that he is listed as 5’1” in height. He is actually 6’2”

HockeyDB now has him listed at 5' 6", 128 lbs ... hardly any better
