Kirill Kaprizov is one of the most eccentric and captivating prospects the Wild have had in their two decades of existence. It is no secret that fans and others that keep the team in their short-term memory, have been dreaming of his North American arrival ever since he started to light it up overseas.
Turning from a fifth-round pick unknown gamble, to the next great Minnesotan import in a matter of a couple years is no easy feat, but Kaprizov was able to do it easily. His resume already boasting multiple extraordinary achievements and accolades, both completed individually and as a team, the 23-year-old has been noted as someone to watch out for when it comes to Calder Trophy voting at the end of this season.
