First-period goals guide Wild to win over Leafs
Hindustan TimesJared Spurgeon scored what turned out to be the winning goal in the first period and the visiting Minnesota Wild went on to defeat the Toronto Maple Leafs 3-1 on Wednesday night. HT Image Marat Khusnutdinov and Marcus Foligno also scored for the Wild, who have won the first two games of a five-game road trip after losing five of their previous six. Spurgeon scored at 15:35 of the first, five seconds into a power play, when his 58-foot shot was deflected by Toronto's Auston Matthews and trickled past Woll. Gustavsson also was in goal when the Wild won the first meeting between the teams 2-1 in overtime on Nov. 3 in Saint Paul, Minn. On Wednesday, Minnesota was without Kirill Kaprizov, who is considered week-to-week due to a lower-body injury that required surgical repair.
