Kahun (undisclosed) was deemed unfit to play for the first practice of camp Monday.
EDGE Analysis
Kahun's designation could be due to an injury or simply quarantine protocols. Either way, he'll look to get cleared to practice in the coming days as Edmonton prepares for its Jan. 13 season opener against Vancouver.

Kahun is set to join the Oilers as training camp opens Sunday, Dustin Nielson of TSN 1260 reports.
EDGE Analysis
Kahun could be poised for a big year, as there's a chance he earns a job on fellow German Leon Draisaitl's wing. His fantasy value could skyrocket if he features in the top six, but if he ends up on the third line, expectations should be significantly lower.

The Oilers have loaned Kahun to EHC Red Bull Munchen of German's DEL until the start of the 2020-21 NHL season.
EDGE Analysis
Kahun, who picked up 12 goals and 31 points in 56 games split between the Penguins and Sabres last season, recently signed a one-year, $975,000 contract with Edmonton. He'll head to Germany for now, but he'll return to North America ahead of the 2020-21 NHL season, and should assume a bottom-six role with the Oilers in 2020-21.

Kahun signed a one-year, $975,000 deal with the Oilers on Sunday, Sheng Peng of San Jose Hockey Now reports.
EDGE Analysis
Kahun scored 12 goals and 31 points across 56 games last season with the Penguins and Sabres. He didn't receive a qualifying offer from Buffalo this offseason, so he was able to secure a deal with Edmonton as an unrestricted free agent. The 25-year-old forward should be in line for middle-six minutes next season.

The Sabres didn't extend Kahun a qualifying offer, so he's scheduled to hit the open market as an unrestricted free agency Friday, The Athletic's Joe Yerdon reports.
EDGE Analysis
This news comes as a surprise, as Kahun was a solid middle-six option for Buffalo last season, totaling 12 goals and 31 points while posting a plus-8 rating in 56 contests. There's still a chance the Sabres will re-sign the 25-year-old forward, but for now, he's set to hit the open market.

Kahun registered an assist during Thursday's loss to Pittsburgh.
EDGE Analysis
Kahun collected the helper against his former team, and he now has three points in his past four contests as a member of the Sabres. However, he only played 7:16 worth of ice time. The points production is encouraging, but it will be very difficult to continue at that pace if he continues to see such little ice time.

Kahun (lower body) netted a goal and blocked two shots in 10:37 during Friday's 4-2 loss to the Golden Knights.
EDGE Analysis
Kahun missed three games with his most recent injury, which also included him getting traded from the Penguins to the Sabres. Friday was his debut with his new team. He's up to 28 points, 80 shots and a plus-6 rating in 51 appearances this season.

Kahun (lower body) is expected to make his Sabres debut Friday against the Golden Knights, WGR Sports Radio 550 reports.
EDGE Analysis
Kahun has been hampered by a lower-body issue over the past week, but he appears poised to slot into a bottom-six role for Friday's contest. The 24-year-old winger notched 10 goals and 27 points in 50 appearances with the Penguins before being dealt to Buffalo at the trade deadline.

Kahun (lower body) will not be available for Wednesday's clash with Colorado, John Vogl of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Kahun previously told reporters he would be ready for Friday's matchup with Vegas if he couldn't play Wednesday, per Paul Hamilton of WGR Sports Radio 550, so fantasy owners should expect to see him make his Sabres debut soon. In 50 games with Pittsburgh this season, the 24-year-old registered 10 goals, 17 helpers and 79 shots while averaging 13:27 of ice time. The Czech should have enough time to push for the 37-point mark he set last year with Chicago.

Kahun (lower body) was acquired by Buffalo from Pittsburgh on Monday in exchange for Conor Sheary and Evan Rodrigues, Pierre LeBrun of TSN reports.
EDGE Analysis
Kahun missed eight of the Penguins' last 10 games due to injury. After a slow start to the season, the Czech native notched 10 goals and 17 helpers in 50 contests and appeared on track to challenge his 37-point rookie campaign. Once fully fit, the 24-year-old should compete for a top-six role with his new club.
