The Minnesota Wild (20-9-5) faced the Washington Capitals (18-11-4), where Kirill Kaprizov set a franchise record by scoring his 70th career power-play goal, marking his 21st goal of the season. Despite entering the game without any points against the Capitals, he broke a tie with Alex Ovechkin for the most goals by a Russian skater since entering the NHL. Kaprizov’s 206 career goals also moved him past Mikko Koivu for second in franchise history, now 13 behind Marian Gaborik’s record.
