Kirill Kaprizov Keeps Closing In On Wild's Goals Record
3 years agoMinnesota Wild winger Kirill Kaprizov scored his 41st goal of the season Friday against St. Louis and now needs just two more markers to set a new franchise record. Marian Gaborik and Eric Staal currently share the record, with the former reaching 42 goals first in 2007-08. Kaprizov has already taken the points record off Gaborik this season, and he's made up a lot of ground in the race to get the goals record as well lately, scoring in eight of his last nine appearances. Minnesota has 12 more games to come, so the prolific winger still has plenty of time left to get the record. Sitting on 88 points, Kaprizov is also chasing a 100-point campaign.
