If the Wild were curious what it was like to play them on the road, the Canucks showed them. Led by strong goaltending, a reputable defense and timely scoring — sound familiar? — Vancouver is also one of the NHL’s most ungracious visitors and remained a handful on Tuesday night to almost spoil the Wild’s homestand finale.

Kirill Kaprizov scored with 23.4 seconds left in overtime and the Minnesota Wild rallied to beat the Vancouver Canucks 3-2 for their sixth victory in eight games.

In a tight-checking, physical, sometimes downright nasty affair, the NHL -leading Wild rallied from a pair of one-goal deficits to beat the Canucks 3-2 when Kirill Kaprizov capped a 1 minute, 45 second shift by extending a franchise record with his ninth career overtime goal.
