Kirill Kaprizov is now only three goals away from setting a new Minnesota Wild franchise record for most goals scored. His stellar performance on Monday, including a two-goal effort and the overtime game-winner in a 4-3 victory against the Montreal Canadiens, brought him closer to this milestone. Kaprizov's 217 goals trail Marian Gaborik's 219, a record he is expected to surpass soon. He has been in remarkable form recently, scoring seven goals in his last six games.

Brock Faber was also a key contributor, scoring the game-tying goal in the third period. This win extended the Wild's impressive home record against the Canadiens, marking their 12th consecutive victory at home against the team.

The team is showcasing strong offensive capabilities and resilience.
