“I don’t think about the number of goals I have. I think about what I can do best for the team and about what our line can do to help us win,” Kaapo Kakko said.
That’s because, though goals are hardly immaterial, the 22-year-old winger has immediate goals beyond scoring.
“I think we are in the same situation as a line as we were going into last year’s playoffs. We have the same role.
