Penguins' Kapanen not at camp due to immigration issues

Pittsburgh Penguins forward Kasperi Kapanen is not with the team for training camp as he continues to deal with immigration issues, head coach Mike Sullivan confirmed Monday to NHL.com's Wes Crosby.

Sullivan added that he doesn't know how long it will take for Kapanen's issues to be resolved.

The 24-year-old Finn was acquired in an offseason trade with the Toronto Maple Leafs for a package that included a 2020 first-round pick (Rodion Amirov) and prospect Filip Hallander.

Kapanen recorded 13 goals and 23 assists in 69 games with the Maple Leafs last season. He was projected to start the upcoming campaign on Pittsburgh's top line with Sidney Crosby and Jake Guentzel.
