EDGE Analysis

Kaprizov will be back in the lineup for the first time since Jan. 26 versus the Blackhawks, a stretch of 28 games on the shelf due to his lower-body issue. In addition to linking up with one of the two power-play units, the Russian winger is expected to slot into a second-line role against the Sharks.
