Wild extends winning streak

Kirill Kaprizov scored in the third round of a shootout and the host Minnesota Wild beat the Toronto Maple Leafs 4-3 on Saturday for their sixth straight win.

Jordan Greenway, Mats Zuccarello and Marcus Foligno had goals in regulation for Central Division-leading Minnesota, which has outscored its opponents 28-12 during the winning streak.

Cam Talbot made 39 saves to tie Toronto’s Jack Campbell and the New York Rangers’ Igor Shesterkin for the league lead with 13 wins.

Jason Spezza scored twice and Auston Matthews once for Toronto, which lost for the first time in six games and is 15-2-1 in its past 18 outings. Campbell had 37 saves.

The Maple Leafs were looking to establish a franchise record with eight straight road wins. Toronto also won seven straight road games in 1940-41, 1960-61 and 2002-03.

Zuccarello and Matthews scored in the first two rounds of the shootout before Kaprizov beat Campbell with a wrist shot. Talbot then stopped William Nylander at the other end.

Toronto played without Mitch Marner. Fourth on the team with 21 points and tied with Morgan Rielly with a club-best 15 assists, the right wing left Friday’s practice after colliding with teammate Jake Muzzin. Expected to be a game-time decision, Marner was replaced by Ondrej Kase.
