TORONTO, ONTARIO -- The Minnesota Wild starts a long trip road trip today, without its star LW Kirill Kaprizov. The news of Kaprizov's injury hit yesterday after practice, when General Manager and President of Hockey Operations Bill Guerin and Head Coach John Hynes addressed the media about Kaprizov's status. The winger is out week-to-week though Guerin clarified that "it is not a season-ending injury" when he spoke yesterday. The Wild remains hopeful nonetheless, forging forward in Toronto without Kaprizov.
