The Minnesota Wild are playoffs-bound for the ninth time in their last 10 seasons and there is one massive contribution that cannot go unnoticed: Kirill Kaprizov breaking the franchise record for most goals scored in a single season.
It’s not even the end, and he’s already hit that 43-goal mark, something that has never been done before for this club, and he is putting defenders in a proverbial headlock as he makes his way down the wing every single night.
Let’s just look back and gasp and remain in awe at what Kaprizov has been able to do this season by putting the puck in the back of the net.
