EDGE Analysis

Kaprizov bounced back from taking a match penalty -- and a fine -- in Tuesday's game versus the Kings. He let his offense do the talking this time, tying the game in the second period and giving the Wild a multi-goal lead in the third. The 25-year-old has 10 goals, 15 points (nine on the power play), 55 shots on net, 12 hits, 13 PIM and a minus-6 rating through 13 contests.

Kaprizov was fined $5,000 for roughing Los Angeles' Drew Doughty during Tuesday's game.

EDGE Analysis

Kaprizov was given a match penalty at 14:48 of the second period because of the incident. The match penalty triggered an automatic hearing with the Department of Player Safety, and this fine was the result. Kaprizov is still eligible to play Wednesday against Anaheim.

Kaprizov was given a match penalty after cross-checking the Kings' Drew Doughty in Tuesday's game, Joe Smith of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Kaprizov was frustrated with Doughty after a battle along the boards. The play was reviewed and determined to be a match penalty, which means Kaprizov will automatically have a hearing with the Department of Player Safety. That hearing will likely be conducted prior to Wednesday's game versus the Ducks -- if a suspension is given, the Wild will be missing one of their best players for that contest.

Kaprizov converted his second two-goal game this season during a 4-1 victory over the Canadiens on Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

Kaprizov scored during the 2-1 loss to the Red Wings on Saturday.

EDGE Analysis

Kaprizov, who has scored in consecutive outings, collected his sixth goal of the season 1 minute, 28 seconds into the first period. The play developed when the 2015 fifth-round draft pick carried the puck into the Red Wings' zone and beat goalie Ville Husso on a drive to the net. The 25-year-old left winger shared the team lead with five shots in 19:46 of ice time, the most among the Wild's forwards.

Kaprizov scored a goal and added an assist in a 4-2 win over the Senators on Thursday.

EDGE Analysis

The assist came on Mats Zuccarello's power-play goal in the first period. Kaprizov tipped in a goal late in the first to put his squad up 2-1. He has five goals and five assists, and sits in a seven-way tie for 10th in league scoring.

Kaprizov picked up two assists and the overtime-winning goal in Thursday's 4-3 victory over the Canucks.

EDGE Analysis

Despite a sluggish 1-3-0 start for the Wild, Kaprizov has been his usual elite self early on this season, having racked up four goals and eight points through the first four games of the campaign. He'll look to extend his point streak to five games Saturday against the Bruins.

Kaprizov scored twice on five shots, added two hits and went minus-3 in Monday's 6-3 loss to the Avalanche.

EDGE Analysis

One of Kaprizov's two goals was on the power play. He was one bright spot for the Wild, but the 25-year-old winger's offense wasn't enough to prevent the team from taking a third straight loss to open the year. Kaprizov has racked up three goals, two assists, 13 shots on net and five hits through three contests, but the Wild's poor defending has left him with a minus-8 rating. Fantasy managers can overlook that one bad statistic if he continues to score at an impressive rate.

Kaprizov registered two points, but it wasn't enough as the Kings edged the Wild, 7-6 on Saturday.

EDGE Analysis

Kaprizov, who scored 47 goals during his sophomore season, has a good chance to reach the 50-goal milestone. Something is different, however, with the 25-year-old left winger's game through two appearances this season. During 2021-22, Kaprizov played a responsible defensive game, posting a combined plus-37 rating over his opening two seasons. The 2015 fifth-round draft pick has opened his third campaign a minus-5 and needs to get back to displaying his overall skillset.

Kaprizov (undisclosed) returned to practice Friday, Michael Russo of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Kaprizov exited Sunday's preseason game versus the Avalanche after blocking a shot, but whatever forced him from that contest clearly wasn't overly serious. At this point it isn't clear if he'll be in the lineup for Sunday's exhibition game against the Blackhawks.
