LAS VEGAS -- Kirill Kaprizov had two goals and an assist for the Minnesota Wild in a 5-2 victory against the Vegas Golden Knights in Game 2 of the Western Conference First Round at T-Mobile Arena on Tuesday.

It may have only been Game 2, but the Minnesota Wild were absolutely in a must-win situation on Tuesday against the Vegas Golden Knights. Before this game, the Wild were not only down 1-0 in the series after losing Game 1 4-2 on Sunday,

If the Wild finally break through and win their first playoff series in a decade, Minnesota’s top line likely will be the reason.
