Edmonton Oilers' Kasperi Kapanen has had a strong start since joining his new team. Here is a bit more depth on his play since joining.

Nikolai Kovalenko scored for the Avalanche (13-12-0), who have lost three of their past four games. Alexandar Georgiev made 28 saves in his second start in as many days. Georgiev started in Colorado’s 5-3 loss at the Dallas Stars on Friday.

Edmonton Oilers head coach Kris Knoblauch recently announced that forwards Zach Hyman and Viktor Arvidsson will be out of the lineup for the next 5-8 days, confirming that neither will be available for this weekend’s games against the Utah Hockey Club and the Colorado Avalanche.

The Edmonton Oilers have claimed former Toronto Maple Leafs forward Kasperi Kapanen off waivers from the St. Louis Blues, as reported by Sportsnet’s Elliotte Friedman. With the move, the Oilers look to add depth upfront from the waiver wire with the addition of Kapanen.
