Kirill Kaprizov - Shakes off injury concern Kaprizov briefly left Thursday's 5-3 win over the Oilers, but indicated that he should be fine if not quite 100 percent in a postgame interview, Michael Russo of The Athletic repor...
Impact Kaprizov took a knee-on-knee hit from Drake Caggiula in the second period, but the Wild winger was back on the ice before the end of the frame. He logged an assist on a Matt Boldy goal in the first period. Since Kaprizov finished the contest, there doesn't seem to be any reason for concern at this point, but he may skip a practice or two in the coming days if he feels sore. The 27-year-old has been electric to begin 2024-25 with 13 goals and 21 assists while adding 59 shots on net and a plus-16 rating across 19 contests.

Johansson has six points, 28 shots on net, 16 hits and a plus-1 rating through 18 appearances. He may be an option in deeper fantasy formats for managers who aren't in need of non-scoring production.

Impact Boldy tied the game at 1-1 midway through the first period.

He's up to four tallies, 12 points, 29 shots on net and a plus-9 rating through 19 appearances, and he's primarily played on the third line over the last month.

Fleury needs to make 15 more appearances to surpassed Roberto Luongo (1,044) for second place, which would put him behind only Martin Brodeur (1,266). Filip Gustavsson will likely get the start Saturday in Calgary in a matinee game.
