The Utah Hockey Club will try to climb up in the standings as they go for their fourth consecutive win over the Minnesota Wild on Friday at Xcel Energy Center. Utah continues to turn heads in their debut season after capturing their 15th win of the season against the Vancouver Canucks 3-2 OT on December 18. Down by two goals with roughly 18 minutes left on the clock, Clayton Keller gave Utah its first score at the 9:02 mark while Dylan Guenther delivered the equalizer six minutes later, sending the game to overtime. Mikhail Sergachev made sure his teammates would not go down the drain as he nailed the game-winning goal at 4:48 of OT period. The Wild have lost three of their last four games, sending them to second place in the Central Division standings with a 20-8-4 (44 points). Kiril Kaprizov has already amassed 48 points (22 goals and 26 assists) in the season. Kaprizov had a hand in the Wild’s lone goal in a 6-1 loss to the Florida Panthers, dishing his 26th assist to Marco Rossi.
