PITTSBURGH — Even judging by his own standard of scathing self-assessments, Kasperi Kapanen offered up a doozy this week when discussing the struggles he experienced during the 2021-22 regular season.
"I wasn't really enjoying hockey for the majority of the year," Kapanen said after Penguins practice on Tuesday at UPMC Lemieux Sports Complex.
Kapanen had plenty of reasons to feel frustrated. After amassing 11 goals and 30 points in 40 games during the 2020-21 campaign, Kapanen produced that same number of goals and just two more points in 79 contests a year ago.
