Kirill Kaprizov - Page 7 - NHL News & Rumors | FOX Sports

Three points in OT win Kaprizov notched a goal and two assists in Thursday's 4-3 overtime victory over Montreal.

Impact Kaprizov's first two points came on the power play, setting up Matt Boldy's tally in the first period and Brock Faber's in the third. He'd then score the game-winner with just five seconds left in overtime, one-timing a feed from Marcus Johansson to give Minnesota a 4-3 win. Kaprizov now has three goals and six points in his last three games after he was held to just one assist in his previous five contests. The 26-year-old Kaprizov got off to a slow start offensively by his standards, though he's shown signs of breaking out of late. He's up to 11 goals and 30 points through 31 games this season.

Two tallies including OT winner Kaprizov scored two goals on a team-high seven shots, including the game-winner, in Tuesday's 4-3 overtime victory over the Bruins.

Impact The 26-year-old tied the game at 2-2 midway through the third period, then gave the Wild the win with a one-timer in the extra frame. Kaprizov snapped a six-game goal drought with the performance, but the streaky winger still has five goals and 12 points over his last 13 contests.

Sets up opening goal Kaprizov recorded an assist, two shots on goal and three blocked shots in Sunday's 3-0 win over the Kraken.

Impact Kaprizov had gone two games without a point entering Sunday, but he ended the short drought by setting up Matt Boldy's opening goal. The 26-year-old Kaprizov hasn't been as dominant as usual this season, but he's up to 24 points, 84 shots on net and a minus-5 rating through 26 appearances. He's been over a point-per-game pace in each of the last two seasons, so it's possible he could enjoy a surge in the middle of the campaign to get back to that level.

One of each in win Kaprizov scored a goal on five shots and added a power-play assist in Tuesday's 5-2 win over the Flames.

Impact Kaprizov tucked in a rebound off the post early in the second period before setting up Matt Boldy's second goal of the game later in the frame. This was Kaprizov's third multi-point effort over the last six contests, a span in which he's been held off the scoresheet only once. The winger is up to eight goals, 23 points (13 on the power play), 78 shots on net and a minus-4 rating through 23 games this season.

Supplies two points Thursday Kaprizov provided a power-play goal and registered an assist in Minnesota's 6-1 win over Nashville on Thursday.

Impact Of Kaprizov's seven goals this season, five of them have been scored with the man advantage. His lack of even-strength tallies helps explain why he's currently on pace for just 27 markers after finishing with at least 40 in each of his previous two campaigns. In those past two seasons, 31 of his 87 goals were scored on the power play. Kaprizov should eventually start to do better at even strength, but in the meantime, he also has 13 assists this year, which brings him up to a solid 20 points through 21 contests.

Collects two points in loss Kaprizov scored a goal and added a power-play assist in Friday's 3-2 loss to the Avalanche.

Impact Kaprizov failed to record a point during the Wild's two-game stint in Sweden, but his offense came back to him with a return to the USA. The winger has four goals and four helpers over nine outings in November. The 26-year-old is up to 17 points (10 on the power play), 62 shots on net, 10 hits and a minus-8 rating through 18 appearances this season, though that's a bit low for a player who's been over a point-per-game pace in each of the last two campaigns.

Two PP points in loss Kaprizov scored a goal and added an assist, both on the power play, in Friday's 3-2 loss to the Sabres.

Impact He got the Wild on the board with 30 seconds left in the first period, wiring a one-timer past Devon Levi from the faceoff dot to the goalie's left, before setting up Joel Eriksson Ek for a nearly identical goal midway through the third as Minnesota tried to rally from a 3-1 deficit. It's only Kaprizov's third multi-point performance through 14 games, but his production's been steady with five goals and 14 points -- including four tallies and four helpers on the power play.

Scores goal vs. Devils Kaprizov supplied a goal in a 5-3 loss to New Jersey on Thursday.

Impact Kaprizov brought an end to his three-game scoring drought and his five-game goal slump. He's up to three markers and 10 points in 10 outings this season. Kaprizov entered Thursday's action with a 5.4 shooting percentage, which was well below his career average of 15.6, so he was due for a goal, and it's entirely plausible that tally will mark the start of a hot stretch.

Helps out three times in win Kaprizov registered three assists in Tuesday's 7-4 victory against the Oilers.

Impact Kaprizov ended up with a plus-3 rating and three shots on goal in 18:05 of ice time across 17 shifts. The 26-year-old Novokuznetsk, Russia native has a pair of three-point games across the past four outings, and he is good for two goals and nine points overall, averaging 1.5 points per game through six contests. Although he's off to a slow start from a goal-scoring standpoint, Kaprizov has converted just 9.1 percent of his 22 shots on net this season -- a positive regression toward his career average of 15.9 percent seems likely for the winger as the season progresses, so fantasy managers shouldn't be hitting the panic button yet.

Huge night on power play Kaprizov collected a goal and two assists, all on the power play, in Tuesday's 5-2 win over the Canadiens.

Impact All five Wild tallies came on special teams, as they jumped out to a 2-0 lead in the first period on a pair of shorties before Kaprizov and the power play got to work over the final two frames. The 26-year-old is off to a flying start to the season with a goal and five points in three games, and only one of the helpers has come at even strength.

Garners power-play assist Kaprizov registered one power-play assist and four shots versus the Panthers on Thursday.

Impact Kaprizov has racked up 30-plus power-play points in each of his previous two campaigns and should be capable of doing so again this season as well. Due to his limited number of games, just 67 last season, the 26-year-old winger fell shy of the 108-point mark he set in 2021-22. If he can stay healthy, Kaprizov should be able to challenge that threshold this year as well.
