Babcock’s trust in Kapanen’s speed, physicality, and net-front game unlocked his best offensive season, and that same approach has made him a playoff force in Edmonton. With Babcock now back in charge and Connor McDavid’s penalty-kill minutes likely to shrink, Kapanen’s gritty, two-way play — including elite shorthanded goals — could be key. The Oilers may be getting more than just a reliable scorer — they’re getting a familiar, high-impact player who thrives under Babcock’s system.
