ST. PAUL, Minn. — – Kirill Kaprizov<\/a> scored the shootout winner as the Minnesota Wild<\/a> defeated the Chicago Blackhawks<\/a> 4-3 on Tuesday night.<\/p>\n

Kaprizov was Minnesota’s second shooter and beat Spencer Knight<\/a> with a wrist shot. Wild goalie Jesper Wallstedt<\/a> stopped all three shootout attempts as the Wild came back from a 3-0 deficit to beat Chicago for the 17th time in 18 games.<\/p>\n

Yakov Trenin<\/a>, Joel Eriksson Ek<\/a> and Jared Spurgeon<\/a> scored for Minnesota. Wallstedt stopped 29 of 32 shots.<\/p>\n

Teuvo Teravainen<\/a>, Ryan Donato<\/a> and Ilya Mikheyev<\/a> scored for Chicago. Knight made 20 saves.<\/p>\n

The Blackhawks took a 2-0 lead in the first period on goals by Teravainen and Donato.<\/p>\n

Mikheyev made it 3-0 nearly six minutes into the second period, when he beat Wallstedt with a wrist shot.<\/p>\n

Trenin began the Minnesota comeback when he broke in alone and beat Knight with a wrist shot at 12:33 of the second.<\/p>\n

Minnesota cut the Chicago lead to 3-2 early in the third when Quinn Hughes<\/a> fired a shot that hit Marcus Johansson<\/a>‘s skate and deflected to Erikson Ek, who got his stick down in time to tap it into the net.<\/p>\n

Spurgeon knocked in a rebound of an Eriksson Ek shot to tie it with 2:01 to play in the third. The goal came after Minnesota had killed its fourth Chicago power play of the game. The Wild also killed a power play in overtime.<\/p>\n
