ST. PAUL, Minn. (AP) — Kirill Kaprizov scored the shootout winner as the Minnesota Wild defeated the Chicago Blackhawks 4-3 on Tuesday night. Kaprizov was Minnesota's second shooter and beat Spencer Knight with a wrist shot.

The Chicago Blackhawks, coming off a tough loss to the Florida Panthers on Sunday, are now 21-23-8. They have 50 points in the standings, which is an improvement over 52 games from a year ago, but it pales in comparison to the 29-14-10 record that the Minnesota Wild have coming into their Tuesday night matchup.
