The 2021-22 season was a year of ups and downs for Minnesota Wild fans and the franchise.
Kirill Kaprizov, after another great season where he set franchise records in a single season for goals, assists and points, cemented himself in the upper echelon of NHL superstars.
Kevin Fiala set out to prove he was an offensive powerhouse unto himself. He arguably did so with a 33-goal, 85-point campaign while playing on the Wild's "third" line with Matt Boldy and Frederick Gaudreau, for all intents and purposes.
Jared Spurgeon rebounded from a so-so 2020-21 season and got some awards consideration.
