  • • Ex-Penguins Update: Kappy Rides Again
    I’ve been following the Penguins in earnest since the early 1970s. (Yes, I’m that old.) In all that time, I don’t think I’ve ever been more perplexed by a player than former Pen Kasperi Kapanen. On the surface, he possesses all the tools. Kapanen skates like the wind, possesses a quick release and rapier-like shot and is capable of making crisp, tape-to-tape passes. The husky 6’1” 194-pounder can ...2025
