It was another highly productive season for Minnesota Wild Russian sniper Kirill Kaprizov, who lit the lamp behind opposition goaltenders 40 times while adding another 35 assists during the 2022-23 season. As Minnesota's most gifted offensive force, he's relied upon for timely goal scoring - and so far in his young career, he's been able to come through in spades.
And not just in the regular season. Thanks to his goal in Game 1 of Minnesota's opening round Stanley Cup Playoffs series against the rival Dallas Stars, he became the second fastest active player to reach 10 career postseason goals. He trails only his countryman Vladimir Tarasenko, a Stanley Cup champion in 2019 with the St. Louis Blues before his career even began.
The Wild and Stars will get back at things tonight starting at 9:30 PM EST from American Airlines Center in downtown Dallas. Minnesota will be looking to take a 2-0 series stranglehold before the series shifts back to the friendly confines of Xcel Energy Center in downtown St. Paul.
