NHL News: Jared Spurgeon comes up big again, nets OT winner as Wild top Predators

Jared Spurgeon scored the game-winning goal one minute into overtime to lift the Minnesota Wild to a 3-2 victory over the Nashville Predators on Saturday night in Saint Paul, Minn.

Spurgeon and Kirill Kaprizov each finished with a goal and an assist for Minnesota, which won its third game in a row. Declan Chisholm also had a goal.

Fedor Svechkov and Ryan O’Reilly each scored for Nashville, which sustained an overtime loss for the third consecutive game. Roman Josi tallied two assists.

Wild goaltender Filip Gustavsson made 25 saves on 27 shots to earn the win.

Predators goaltender Juuse Saros gave up three goals on 28 shots.

Kaprizov prompted the game-winning goal when he carried the puck into the offensive zone and flipped a backhand pass toward Spurgeon in the slot. Spurgeon buried a one-timer for his third goal of the season, all of which have come during the past two games.

It marked the second game-winning goal in as many days for Spurgeon, who lifted the Wild to a 3-2 win over the Chicago Blackhawks on Friday afternoon.

The Wild seized a 1-0 lead with 1:03 to go in the first period. Chisholm ripped a slap shot through traffic and into the net for his first goal of the season and the fourth of his career.

Nashville evened the score with 21 seconds left in the first period, as Svechkov tallied his first NHL goal on a one-timer from the right circle.

The 21-year-old Svechkov celebrated along the boards before his teammates greeted him with fist bumps and hugs. He was the Predators’ first-round pick (No. 19 overall) in 2021.

Nashville grabbed a 2-1 lead on the power play with 17:31 remaining in the second period. Steven Stamkos fired a hard pass to the slot and O’Reilly redirected it into the net for his fifth goal.

The Wild responded with a power-play goal of their own with 11:36 to play in the second period. Kaprizov used one hand to redirect the puck into the net for his team-leading 15th goal.
