Kasperi Kapanen will start Friday's game on the fourth line again.
"We're trying to ease him in here. He hasn't played a lot of 5-on-5 hockey. He's had two team practices and one with the taxi squad," said coach Mike Sullivan. "He's played in one game to this point. The timing, the spacial awareness, and just the physical play, it takes a little bit of time for players to get up to speed. We are trying to do that in the most expeditious manner we can - and protecting him at the same time, without him getting hurt. We are trying to walk that line. Obviously, we have high expectations of Kappy and we anticipate him playing on the top-six here more and more." Kapanen picked up an assist in his season debut on Tuesday, while logging 10:02 of ice time. Jan 22 6:59 pm (EST)
