We finally got rewarded on the big stage. For the impressively successful season that the Minnesota Wild have earned so far, we got to see two key players get on the big stage and show off why exactly their team is currently one of the best in the league.
In the 3-on-3 format between each division, the Central were able to stave off an early exit by defeating the Atlantic by a score of 8-5. Kirill Kaprizov was able to earn two assists, including an absolutely insane play featuring an aggressive forecheck, an offensive-zone interception from Auston Matthews, and setting up Chicago Blackhawks winger Alex Debrincat.
