Minnesota Wild left wing Kirill Kaprizov scored his NHL-leading 16th goal of the season and added three assists to lead the Wild to a 4-1 victory over the San Jose Sharks on Friday night at Xcel Energy Center in St. Paul, Minnesota.
Kaprizov's four-point performance gave him a league-best 16 goals through the first month of the season. Goaltender Jesper Wallstedt made key saves for Minnesota, while Sharks centers Macklin Celebrini and Zack Ostapchuk tested the Wild netminder throughout the game.
