The Minnesota Wild scored two early goals and cruised to a 5-1 victory over the Washington Capitals on Sunday night, ending Washington's three-game winning streak.
Defenseman Quinn Hughes opened the scoring for Minnesota in the first period, and the Wild built a lead they never relinquished at Capital One Arena.
Alex Ovechkin and Tom Wilson led the Capitals' attack, but goaltender Jesper Wallstedt turned aside numerous chances to secure the win for the Wild.
The Associated Press reported the game took place on November 1, 2026, in Washington.
