Heyyyyy… Kaapo Kakko’s alarm finally went off! Yep, the 2019 second overall draft pick finally rolled out of bed and started the 2021-22 NHL season on Sunday, picking up his first assist of the campaign in the middle of the second period…and then adding his first goal of the season early in the third.

A few years ago, Dobber was closely tracking Andreas Athanasiou in his quest for the most abysmal season ever, at least in terms of plus-minus.
