Kakko scored a goal on three shots, added an assist and went plus-2 in Tuesday's 4-3 win over the Canucks. Kakko and Will Cuylle set up each other's goals in this contest. With four points over his last four games, Kakko is starting to find some offense again after he opened November with four scoreless outings.

Kakko logged an assist and two hits in Sunday's 2-0 win over the Kraken. Kakko set up a Zac Jones tally in the third period. This was Kakko's second point in the last three games, though that follows a stretch of four contests in which he was held off the scoresheet. The winger is up to two goals, seven assists, 24 shots on net, nine hits, 14 PIM and a plus-10 rating over 16 outings this season. He's been solid in a third-line role, but that usage doesn't promise consistency.

Kakko scored a goal in a 6-3 loss to Winnipeg on Tuesday. The goal was his first in eight games, and the point was his first in five contests. Kakko has managed a modest eight points (two goals, six assists) in 14 games, and if he can maintain the pace, he'll establish a new career mark in points (40 is his best; 2022-23). Kakko could even see an uptick in production, as his 8.3 shooting percentage is well below his 12.0 career mark.

The Finnish winger has added 14 shots on net, 12 PIM and a plus-9 rating through nine appearances overall.
