Kaapo Kakko Facts

A quick-thinking winger, Kakko never seems to be in a rush. He reads the game exceptionally well and finds himself a step ahead while the play is still developing. He is confident with the puck and capable of handling it in small spaces. With his size, Kakko protects the puck well and uses his high hockey IQ to make smart offensive plays. Kakko excels offensively and beats opponents with smarts and skill both on and off the puck. (Matias Strozyk, EP 2018)

Kakko’s hockey sense blends into his craftiness, leaving defenders without a lot of options when attempting to shutdown his game.

Displaying spectacular puck skills, he’s strong in the corners and has shown that he’s a beast physically.
