KIRILL KAPRIZOV

Kaprizov Carves Up Space, Forces Bruins into Traffic

He capped Minnesota’s attack with a late goal after constantly generating dangerous looks for his line

Kirill Kaprizov was the engine of Minnesota’s attack, drawing Boston defenders and delivering the high-quality looks his linemates could cash. He finished with one goal on three shots, and his individual expected goals on the night was 2.11, showing he wasn’t just shooting, he was getting the dangerous looks. The result: the Wild generated far more dangerous chances while he was on the ice, and Kaprizov made those opportunities count.
