Kirill Kaprizov, Wild Offense Set To Cool Down
4 years agoMinnesota Wild winger Kirill Kaprizov looks unstoppable these days, but as we all know, all good things have to come to an end. It's very likely to happen next week when Minnesota faces a pair of games against both Vegas and Arizona. The Wild enters the week on a six-game winning streak and the team has averaged 4.5 goals per game during the run, but Dean Evason's side has heavily relied on even-strength scoring, and they badly need to get their 7.9 percent power play going to keep up the streak. The Golden Knights have allowed the fourth-fewest (28) even-strength goals in the league this season and the Coyotes (37) are close to a top-10 record as well. Both teams also have a top-10 penalty-killing, so Minnesota forwards find themselves in a tricky spot.
