Kirill Kaprizov Expected To Miss Longer Period Of Time
3 hours agoMinnesota Wild left wing Kirill Kaprizov (lower body) is "going to be out longer than expected," according to general manager Bill Guerin. Earlier in January, the star winger underwent surgery and was expected to miss at least four weeks of action. However, Kaprizov will now miss a longer period. Fantasy managers should continue monitoring his status, but the 27-year-old currently has an unclear timetable. Across 37 contests, Kaprizov has found the back of the net 23 times and added 29 helpers. He averaged 3.5 shots on goal per game and held a plus-14 rating. While he continues to remain sidelined, fantasy managers should expect Matt Boldy to remain on the top unit alongside Marco Rossi and Matt Zuccarello.
