LOS ANGELES (AP) — Kirill Kaprizov had a goal and an assist, and the Minnesota Wild beat Los Angeles 3-1 on Monday night, ending the Kings’ eight-game home winning streak.

Matt Boldy and Ryan Hartman also scored for the Wild, who had been outscored 13-3 in their previous two games against the Kings. Filip Gustavsson made 23 saves.

“They ran us out of the building last time we were here, 6-0 last time,” Gustavsson said. “We came here, we wanted to finish off strong, and we played good in San Jose. We wanted to come here and win this game, and personally, like I said, finish off on a good note.”

Blake Lizotte scored and Cam Talbot allowed three goals on 29 shots as the Kings lost firm control of their path to third place in the Pacific Division. They are one point ahead of Vegas, which has a game in hand.

“You can describe it a bunch of different ways,” interim coach Jim Hiller said. “Not enough intensity, not enough emotion, not competitive enough. A bunch of different words, they all mean the same thing.”
