Kapanen (undisclosed) is expected to miss the first two games out of the Olympic break, Oilers TV reporter Paige Martin reports Sunday.
The Oilers open up the post-Olympic break schedule with a back-to-back set against the Ducks and Kings on Wednesday and Thursday. Kapanen scored a goal in back-to-back games prior to the break, so it's a bit surprising he's been ruled out coming out of the break. The 29-year-old has 12 points (five goals, seven assists) in 19 games played this season. His next chance to suit up will come Saturday in San Jose.
