The main event featured the Minnesota Wild rolling into UBS Arena and handling the New York Islanders with a decisive 5-2 victory. Kirill Kaprizov was the man of the hour, potting a goal and adding an assist. The goal was a thing of beauty—a slick between-the-legs drop pass to Mats Zuccarello, who immediately fed it back for a blistering one-timer. Speaking of Zuccarello, he made his season debut after missing 15 games and instantly made an impact with an assist, reminding Wild fans what they’d been missing. The Islanders, on the other hand, have now dropped two in a row.
Elsewhere, the New York Rangers just keep winning on the road, improving to 7-1-1 away from MSG after beating the Detroit Red Wings. Artemi Panarin was electric, picking up three points in the victory. The Red Wings saw the return of veteran Patrick Kane from an upper-body injury, but it wasn’t enough to slow down the red-hot Rangers.
