Ryan Hartman and Danila Yurov each scored two goals and Jesper Wallstedt made 30 saves on Saturday night as the Minnesota Wild defeated the Boston Bruins 6-2 to extend their road winning streak to eight games. The West-leading Wild earned their NHL-best 10th road victory.
Kirill Kaprizov kept his offensive momentum alive by handing out two assists. That performance stretched his point streak to 11 games, a span featuring six goals and 14 assists. The Wild have now earned at least a point in 11 straight contests, holding a 9-0-2 record over that stretch.
Minnesota jumped ahead early in the second period when Quinn Hughes and Blake Coleman scored 67 seconds apart. Hughes slipped a wrist shot past Boston goaltender Jeremy Swayman just 53 seconds into the frame. Coleman followed quickly with a slap shot from the point that went through traffic into the net, pushing the lead to 3-0.
Bruins Struggle in New Jerseys
Boston dropped its second home game after previously winning seven in a row at TD Garden. Both recent home losses came while the team wore its new mostly brown varsity jerseys featuring bright yellow numbers, trim, and helmets, which debuted on Thursday.
Fraser Minten got Boston on the board with a power-play goal at 8:45 of the second period. Any brief momentum for the hosts vanished 75 seconds later when Hartman notched his second goal of the night. Yurov added two tallies in the third period, capping the scoring with an empty-netter.
Jeremy Swayman returned to the net and stopped 19 shots after getting pulled during Boston’s lopsided home loss against Montreal on Thursday. That Thursday defeat marked Boston’s first home loss since October 5.

Upcoming Schedule
The Wild won the first meeting of the season 4-1 at home on October 3, a game where Kaprizov scored twice. Entering Saturday’s contest, both teams were tied with the NHL’s second-best goal differential at plus-24, sitting behind Carolina.
For their next matchups, the Wild return home to host Nashville on Tuesday night. Meanwhile, the Bruins will close out their four-game homestand on Tuesday by facing Los Angeles.
