#21 Dominik Kahun, Game Worn Canadian Armed Forces Night Warm Up, Edmonton Oilers 2020/21

            This jersey was worn during warm-up at the Calgary Flames vs. Edmonton Oilers game, the Battle of Alberta, on April 29, 2021.

German-Czech forward Dominik Kahun came through the junior divisions of HC Mariánské Lázně, 1. EV Weiden, HC Plzeň 1929 and Jungadler Mannheim before being drafted 39th overall by the Sudbury Wolves in the 2012 CHL Import Draft. 
He spent two years in Sudbury and played 115 games (24 G / 55 A) for the Wolves in the Ontario Hockey League, with whom he also won the 2012 Junior Club World Cup.

For the 2014/15 season, Kahun moved back to Germany to EHC Red Bull Munich. He was also given a development license that allowed him to play for SC Riessersee, the EHC's cooperation partner in DEL2. However, he quickly asserted himself in Munich, so that he played a total of only 12 games (7 G / 8 A) in the DEL2. 

In his four seasons with EHC Red Bull Munich, the crowd favorite reached the Champions Hockey League final once, the DEL playoffs four times, won three consecutive championships and became a regular for the German national team. In total, he played 206 DEL games (48 G / 101 A) and 17 Champions Hockey League games (4 G / 7 A) for Munich.

The highlight of his career so far was probably the 2018 Winter Olympics, where he won the silver medal with the German national team, the greatest international success for German ice hockey since the bronze medal in 1976.

In the aftermath of this Olympic tournament, Kahun received an NHL contract with the Chicago Blackhawks, for whom he played 82 games in the 2018/19 season (13 G / 24 A). He scored his first points in the NHL on October 8 with two assists in a 7-6 overtime loss to the Toronto Maple Leafs. A few days later, on October 11, he scored his first NHL goal in a 4-3 overtime loss to the Minnesota Wild.

Prior to the 2019/20 season, Dominik Kahun was then traded to the Pittsburgh Penguins along with a fifth-round pick for Olli Määttä. He played 50 games for Pittsburgh (10 G / 17 A) before being traded on to the Buffalo Sabres for Conor Sheary and Evan Rodrigues in February 2020. He played 6 games for Buffalo (2 G / 2 A).

After not getting a new contract with the Sabres, he joined the Edmonton Oilers as a free agent prior to the 2020/21 season, but was loaned back to his former team in Munich due to the Covid-delayed start of the NHL season. For Munich, he played 7 games in a preseason tournament (2 G / 6 A) before being recalled to the Oilers training camp. For Edmonton he played a total of 50 games (9 G / 6 A).

Since he did not receive a new contract there either, he signed for three years with the Swiss National League A team SC Bern. 
In the 2021/22 season, his first year in Bern, he played 42 games (16 G / 28 A).

During his career so far, he played 188 games in the NHL (Chicago Blackhawks / Pittsburgh Penguins / Buffalo Sabres / Edmonton Oilers) (34 G / 49 A), 115 games in the OHL (Sudbury Wolves) (24 G / 55 A), 42 games in the NLA (SC Bern) (16 G / 28 A), 206 games in the DEL (EHC Red Bull Munich) (48 G / 101 A), 17 games in the Champions HL (EHC Red Bull Munich) (4 G / 7 A), 12 games in the DEL2 (SC Riessersee) (7 G / 8 A) and 73 international games for the German national team (12 G / 34 A).
