Kirill Kaprizov ALREADY holds many Minnesota Wild records

[ViD]

With his only 4th season as a Wild player he holds the following franchise records:

Goals per game
Assists per game
Points per game
Goals created per game
Most goals in a season
Most assists in a season
Most points in a season
Most PP goals in a season

Also, with only 271 games played, he’s already:

4th in goals
8th in points
10th in shots
2nd in hat tricks


I mean he already qualifies to be considered for a jersey retirement

It says a lot about the history of the Wild.

 

[Joe Hallenback]

Most dives all time

 

[Felidae]

Exciting player. He's already one of the best goalscorers in the league and has the talent for more than one 100 point season, just needs to stop getting injured.

Hey come on.

They did make the Conference Finals once.

 

[Dr Pepper]

Matthews on a similar trajectory, only difference being the Leafs as a franchise are about 5x older than Minny.

Cool for Kap though, dude's been electric ever since he broke into the league.

 

[Suntouchable13]

It says more about the Wild than him, no disrespect. It's a relatively young franchise that doesn't have a lot of history.

 

[Connor McConnor]

Per game stats is a record? Gaborik played in the DPE, from a pure talent perspective he wasn’t far behind Kap who will obviously clear the real records

 

[Raccoon Jesus]

I was gonna say yeah, it's still impressive given they had Gaborik. But he'll crush all that given time.

 

[kp61c]

doubt he will stay after his current deal ends so most records should hold.

You will see a bunch of teams who were expansion teams during less offensive eras see franchise records fall if scoring continues the way it has over the past few seasons.

Who the f*** asked about Toronto? People like you ruin this board.

the rest of the team didn't get the memo about the scoring, i guess

 

[CanadienShark]

So... A lot of nothing?

Per game/per season is meaningless. People care absolute franchise records such as most goals, assists, etc.

He's a superstar player, but let's not act like he's some otherworldly talent that is transcending normal hockey.

Most beatings by a Jet.

 

[thethirdhockeyman91]

Makes sense.the wild haven’t had any star player since Gaborik. Maybe Havlat for a season or two

What are you on about? This is Matthews' 8th year with the Leafs. Kap has only been there 4

Hopefully he stays in Minnesota. I want star players on teams with passionate fan bases

Gaborik was likely the better player, but was often injured or had a misdiagnosed injury.

What helps Kaprizov is that he is playing in the highest scoring seasons in the history of the Minnesota Wild

to be fair with how little time they've been around league scoring the last few years is also higher than at any other point in their history

so the per game and in a season records do make sense

Kaprizov is a way better player than Gaborik, its not even remotely close IMO.

No one, settle down.

Just saying it's funny when a team has lower franchise numbers than you'd expect, so the ladder is climbed quicker.
