Today kicks off the best-of-seven, first-round Stanley Cup playoff series between the Vegas Golden Knights and your Minnesota Wild. Needless to say, fans in the State of Hockey hope that this is the start of something special to cap off what has so far been a special season.
When: 2:00 p.m. CT
Where: T-Mobile Arena
This is going to be the first “real” playoff game (not counting the bubble play-in series) that Kevin Fiala plays in a Wild sweater. It’s the first time that superstar Kirill Kaprizov plays in the NHL postseason.
