ST. PAUL, Minn. (AP) --- Kirill Kaprizov scored his 37th goal of the season,
Matt Boldy notched his 36th, and Filip Gustavsson earned his fourth shutout of
the season as the Minnesota Wild defeated the Utah Mammoth 5-0 on Tuesday night.
Bobby Brink scored his first goal since the Wild acquired him from the Flyers
on Friday. Brink, a Minnesota native, put his new team up 3-0 early in the
third period.
Danila Yurov and Ryan Hartman also scored in the third.
Gustavsson stopped all 25 shots he faced. Utah's Karel Vejmelka made 25 saves
in the loss.
Quinn Hughes extended his point streak with an assist, giving him one goal and
five assists in his last five games.
The Mammoth thought they had the first goal after Kailer Yamamoto found the
back of the net. It was waved off for goalie interference after Barrett
Hayton's stick hit Gustavsson in the helmet.
After failing to score on a 5-on3, Kaprizov shot wide of the net, which bounced
off the end boards. While falling forward, he fired from one knee to put the
Wild up 1-0 with 5:50 remaining in the opening period.
Up next
Mammoth: Host Chicago on Thursday.
Wild: Host Philadelphia on Thursday.
