ST. PAUL - The Minnesota Wild (28-16-4) dropped another game at home this season and have now fallen to 11-11-1 on home ice this year. They have lost the last three games at home and are 4-8-0 in their last 11 at home.

After receiving an inadvertent puck to the face from teammate Michael Kesselring, Clayton Keller immediately went to the locker room. When he checked back in at 4:40 in the second period, Utah's offense would come to life and score four goals in a row on route to its 5-2 victory.

Filip Gustavsson made 25 saves for the Wild (28-16-4), which has lost four of its past five. Forward Kirill Kaprizov had three shots in 16:39 after missing the past 12 games with a lower-body injury.

Kaprizov had a couple scoring chances for the Wild (28-16-4), who were delighted to get their superstar back after he missed the last 12 games with a lower-body injury. Karel Vejmelka made 26 saves for Utah (21-19-7) in what was just their second shutout win of the season.

The Utah Hockey Club's winning streak was snapped at three on Friday after losing to the Winnipeg Jets by a score of 5-2.

After the rosters for the 4 Nations Face-Off were announced, it was expected that Clayton Keller’s name would be on the list. However, the Utah Hockey Club captain’s omission from Team USA was a surprise throughout the league and maybe for himself too.
