Wild Build Early Lead to Hold Off Vegas
Minnesota’s penalty kill went 5-for-5 and Jesper Wallstedt made 21 saves as the Wild improved to 4-1 on the season.
- On Monday, the Minnesota Wild defeated the Vegas Golden Knights 4-2 in St. Paul, powered by three first-period goals from Matt Boldy, Maxim Shabanov, and Danila Yurov for their second consecutive win.
- Minnesota built a 3-0 lead during a 5:07 stretch in the first period, exploiting defensive lapses while Golden Knights goaltender Carter Hart allowed three goals on 27 shots.
- The win was dampened by a first-period head injury to forward Nico Sturm, who did not return after being struck by a teammate's shot; Jesper Wallstedt made 21 saves to anchor the defense.
- Vegas narrowed the deficit as Defenseman Rasmus Andersson and William Karlsson scored, but Joel Eriksson Ek secured the win with an empty-net goal, ending the Knights' four-game winning streak.
- The Golden Knights travel to Nashville to play the Nashville Predators on Tuesday, while the Wild depart for Winnipeg to face the Jets after placing Marcus Foligno on injured reserve and recalling Tyler Pitlick.
