2025 Fantasy Outlook
Koppanen saw action in a career-high 11 NHL games for the Penguins last season, producing one goal on 10 shots, 40 hits and three blocks while averaging 13:23 of ice time. The 27-year-old winger was slightly more productive in the minors with 23 points in 56 regular-season contests. Considering the Finn signed a two-way deal with the Pens, he figures to once again split his time between leagues and likely has fallen behind some of the team's more recent draft picks, which means Koppanen won't be a strong option in fantasy.

Signed a contract with Lulea HF (Sweden) in June of 2026.
Headed back to Europe
Koppanen agreed to terms on a contract with Swedish club Lulea HF on Monday, Seth Rorabaugh of Tribune-Review Sports reports.
ANALYSIS
Koppanen appeared in 13 regular-season games for the Penguins this season but failed to find the back of the net. The 28-year-old winger did manage one assist, seven shots and 11 hits while averaging 12:08 of ice time. At this point, the Finn will be hard-pressed to get another NHL opportunity, having logged a total of 33 regular-season games and producing just three points, and figures to play the rest of his days overseas.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Making NHL debut
Koppanen will make his NHL debut against the Kraken on Thursday, Fluto Shinzawa of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Koppanen earned his promotion to the NHL with five goals and 14 assists in 34 games for AHL Providence this season. The 24-year-old Finn will slot into a fourth-line role where he likely won't see much in the way of minutes. As such, Koppanen figures to be a low-end fantasy target.
