Hockey player Kaprizov set a Minnesota record by scoring over 40 goals in two NHL seasons
Russian striker “Minnesota Wild” Kirill Kaprizov set a record in the National Hockey League. Player statistics are available on the NHL website.
On the night of April 11-12, the hockey player scored the puck in a regular season match against the Winnipeg Jets (1:3). She became his 40th in the 2022/2023 season. Kaprizov achieved the same result last season. The Russian became the first player in the history of Minnesota, who managed to spend two or more seasons with 40 goals.
The match against Winnipeg was the second for Kaprizov after recovering from injury. On March 9, Jets guard Logan Stanley held a power hold against the Russian, after which he had to limp off the ice. He was diagnosed with a lower body injury.
Kaprizov has been playing for Minnesota since 2020. In his debut season, the Russian was recognized as the best newcomer in the NHL.
