Kaprizov (lower body) didn't sustain a serious injury in Thursday's win over Edmonton, according to Michael Russo of The Athletic on Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
Kaprizov had an MRI on Sunday, and the results were encouraging, but it's still unclear when he will be available to play. The Wild will monitor him on a day-by-day basis. Kaprizov didn't play in Saturday's 4-3 shootout loss to Calgary, and it's doubtful that he will return to action in Monday's game versus Winnipeg. An official update on his timeline should come from the team soon. Kaprizov has amassed 13 goals, 34 points and 59 shots on net in 19 appearances this season.

Kaprizov (lower body) will undergo an MRI on Sunday, reports Elliotte Freideman of CBC Hockey Night in Canada.
EDGE Analysis
He was hit by Drake Caggiula when he cut back toward the middle at center ice in Thursday's game. There was no penalty on the play, but it was a collision that opened Kaprizov's hips awkwardly because Caggiula was off-balance as he tried to stop and reach back to catch the star. Now, the NHL's second-leading scorer (34 points) and potential Hart Trophy candidate is on the shelf, perhaps for a while.

Kaprizov briefly left Thursday's 5-3 win over the Oilers, but indicated that he should be fine if not quite 100 percent in a postgame interview, Michael Russo of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Kaprizov took a knee-on-knee hit from Drake Caggiula in the second period, but the Wild winger was back on the ice before the end of the frame. He logged an assist on a Matt Boldy goal in the first period. Since Kaprizov finished the contest, there doesn't seem to be any reason for concern at this point, but he may skip a practice or two in the coming days if he feels sore. The 27-year-old has been electric to begin 2024-25 with 13 goals and 21 assists while adding 59 shots on net and a plus-16 rating across 19 contests. He's accumulated six goals and seven assists during his active seven-game point streak.

Kaprizov scored a goal on four shots in Thursday's 3-0 win over the Canadiens.
EDGE Analysis
Kaprizov made it easy to forget five giveaways by logging his 11th multi-point effort in 16 outings. He initiated a pretty passing sequence along with Marcus Johansson to set up Matt Boldy's goal midway through the second period. The helper was Kaprizov's 20th, which ranks third in the NHL. He later scored into an empty for his 10th goal (20.0 shooting percentage).
