Kärpät faces Tappara in the Liiga round on Saturday at home starting at 5:00 PM.

The Oulu team has received excellent news on match day. Forward Aku Räty, who has been sidelined for the last four weeks, is making his return to the team lineup.

Räty, 24, last played on October 4th and has since missed nine games. He was supposed to return to the ice only after the national team break, but his return is happening earlier than expected.

Before his absence, Räty recorded 10 points in ten games with a score of 5+5=10. In the Tappara game, Räty will play alongside Ben Tardif and Patrik Virta.
