Kaprizov Scores Hat Trick as Wild, Lightning & Oilers Bounce Back in Game 2s
Another four-pack from the Stanley Cup Playoffs saw three teams make things interesting. The Lightning, Wild and Oilers all got a game back on their opponents while the Hurricanes look to bury the Bruins. Victor Hedman (Lightning) had a goal and three assists in Tampa Bay’s bounce-back win. Evander Kane (Oilers) tallied two goals and an assist to lead Edmonton. But it was Kirill Kaprizov (Wild) with a hat trick to earn the game-puck from Wednesday night. Early-round drama could yield a few lengthy series on ice, and we’re here for it.
