Jared Spurgeon broke a 33-game scoring drought by netting two goals in the second period, leading the Minnesota Wild to a 3-2 victory over the Chicago Blackhawks. Marco Rossi also contributed a goal, while Marc-Andre Fleury made 20 saves, improving his record to 5-0-1.

The Wild has dominated the Blackhawks, now boasting a 13-0-1 record against them since February 2020. Spurgeon's goals were his first since April 2023, coinciding with his 35th birthday.

Chicago's Ryan Donato scored twice, but the team remains tied for the fewest points in the NHL. Notably, Kirill Kaprizov played his 300th career game, marking a significant milestone in his young career.
