Vegas was the least-penalized team in NHL history during the regular season, and that trend continue Sunday night in a 4-2 victory over Minnesota.

The Wild’s top line clicked twice with Matt Boldy scoring a pair and Kirill Kaprizov collecting assists on both those markers. Minnesota’s top line remains an asset to the Wild and a problem for opponents. The Wild were disciplined in their approach were able to generate chances.

By the time Brett Howden's second goal of Game 1 entered an empty net as the final horn sounded, the Vegas Golden Knights were already on their way to a first-round series lead over the Minnesota Wild.
