LAS VEGAS (AP) --- Filip Gustavsson made 30 saves and the Minnesota Wild scored
three goals in a 3:07 span in the second period in a 4-2 victory over the Vegas
Golden Knights on Friday night.
Third in the Central Division, Minnesota improved to 3-2 since the Olympic
break. Vegas is second in the Pacific Division.
Mats Zuccarello opened the second-period scoring spree at 5:18 on a wrist shot.
Zach Bogosian followed with a slap shot at 8:07, and newcomer Michael McCarron
had a tip-in at 8:25. Vladimir Tarasenko scored with 4:18 left in the third,
with McCarron assisting in his Wild debut.
Pavel Dorofeyev and Mitch Marner had third-period goals for Vegas, and Akira
Schmid stopped 20 shots. Dorofeyev scored his 30th of the season, ending
Gustavsson's shutout bid with a power-play goal at 2:17.
Robby Fabbri and Bobby Brink also made their Wild debuts following trades.
Minnesota also acquired Nick Foligno from Chicago at the trade deadline. He'll
join younger brother Marcus with the Wild.
Nic Dowd and Cole Smith made their Vegas debuts. Dowd came over Friday from
Washington. The Golden Knights placed forward Mark Stone on injured reserve
Thursday because of an upper-body injury.
