A young forward, Oliver Kapanen, is compelling Kent Hughes and the Montreal Canadiens to take action at the start of training camp.
The 21-year-old has made a strong impression since the very first intra-squad game and continues to stand out.
His performance has caught the attention of Martin St-Louis.
Kapanen has been among the top players at the 2024 Montreal Canadiens training camp so far.
If he maintains this level of play, Kent Hughes and Jeff Gorton will face significant decisions, as they cannot send Kapanen back to Sweden at this time.
Oliver Kapanen could force Kent Hughes to make room in the offense
Kapanen, a second-round pick in 2021, is having quite the camp.

His performances, including the game against the Philadelphia Flyers, could genuinely force management to trade a forward to make room for him.
Could Kent Hughes be calling the Los Angeles Kings about this very topic?
