After playing 12 games with the Canadiens at the beginning of the season, Oliver Kapanen was sent back to Europe.

The CH thought it was better for his development to go play in a league where he can dominate.

But we could see him again soon, this same Kapanen…

At least, that’s what we can believe when we hear Kent Hughes say that the player could join the Rocket when his season in Europe is over.

This would be a great help to Laval:

Let’s recall that Jakub Dobes and Owen Beck – a paper transaction – will also be eligible to participate in the playoffs in the American League.

Dobes, Beck, Kapanen… Ah, and there’s also Jacob Fowler in all this who should/may join the ranks of the Rocket once his season is over in the NCAA.

It’s going to be interesting: the Rocket will have three young goalkeepers (Dobes, Primeau, and Fowler) at their disposal… And it will be interesting to see what the coaches’ plan will be.

Who will we trust? That’s the question…

That being said, it’s good to see that these guys could experience the excitement of the playoffs because they would have the opportunity to play important games. We know that young players gain a lot of experience in moments like these, and the CH organization is surely aware of this too.

And with the Rocket’s firepower, the team will have a chance to go all the way!


In brief

– Jakub Dobes will face the Flames tomorrow.

– Aubé-Kubel is going to New York.

– Good point.

– Good read.
