That was a bit of a weird one, but it had goals in it! After back-to-back letdown losses against the Seattle Kraken and Los Angeles Kings, the Wild emphatically ended their scoring drought with a 4-1 win over the Anaheim Ducks on Wednesday night.
Kirill Kaprizov scored his team-leading 9th and 10th goals of the season, and Filip Gustavsson stopped 31 of 32 shots in a game that had a little bit of everything but, most importantly, had Minnesota Wild goalscoring. Joseph Cramarossa and Matt Dumba each scored their first goals of the season in the win as the Wild ended 160 minutes without scoring a single goal by scoring four of them in about 15 minutes of play.
