   I’m surprised there isn’t more Patrick Kane comparisons, he’s skating, puck skills and just the way he can take over a game reminds me a lot of Kane.

   Imagine if he had a center who doesn't have Down Syndrome? Hopefully Rossi pans out, but as a wild fan, I'm used to disappointment.

   Great Video 😁 Kaprizov is the best player to ever wear a Wild jersey easy and simple

   Go watch some Peter Forsberg highlights. Almost identical players. The physicality they play with and ability to be dominant on the puck. Constant creativeness in attacking defenses off pace and finding teammates and chances for himself in unexpected areas. Constantly throwing passes and taking picks to high danger areas…even if that’s a behind the back no look pass to the weakside. It’s a 9.5-10 comparison.

   As a lifelong wild fan (Although I am only 19 I remember when we got Parise and Suter in 2012) we've needed a guy like Kaprizov. Yes, we made the biggest splash in free agency in 2012 with Parise and Suter, but they were never stars. They could be "the guy", but they always had other guys around them. Kaprizov though looks like to be a superstar in the making, or in my opinion, he already is. If we want to bring Lord Stanley's Cup to Minnesota this year it has to be this year, or within the next 2. We have the best goalie Tandom in the game right now. The best rookie. A veteran core with lots of playoff experience. And enough young talent to pick up the slack with the Vets.

   Honestly maybe a little biased but I think krill is better than panairn I think. Panairn played with Patrick Kane his rookie season who has Krill played with Rask, fiala zuccarello and he doing pretty much the same numbers!

    Why they don't make him play at the center

    I wouldn’t call him better then artemi, but over time he’s totally gonna win at least one rocket Richard and the Calder, he’ll he’s probably gonna be in the cover of an nhl game

    I think he’s a combo of crosbies playmaking panarins absurd hockey sense, and federovs shot

    He reminds me a lot of a mix of Patrick Kane skating, Datsyuk speed, and malkin physicality. He is definitely a player who makes this team better but with how well he can skate on his edges I see him as a balanced as Crosby. His presence on the team is comparable to Steve Yzerman. Thats my go to when people ask yo describe his game. Kaprisov is the new Yzerman to me but it's hard to really define his game by one player

    He skates like Barzal passes like St. Louis and dangles like Datsyuk.

    Those are all great choices but I would compare him most to bure and then panarin. Both him and Bure were hyped a lot before they joined their teams. Kaprizov may not be as fast as Bure but he is definitely a game changer. They both joined weak teams and instantly made them better! Also similar to panarin since they both played in the KHL for 5+ years before playing in the NHL. It’s crazy that he was picked 135th. But then again it’s even crazier that panarin was undrafted! Kiril has a lot of potential and is already becoming a star in the league. Maybe he’ll help the wild win the Cup one day too!

    He reminds me of Pavel Datsyuk and maxim afinogenov https://youtu.be/JcISd2_wSl0 maxim afinogenov highlights

    Kaprizov has the best edge work in the league. Great balance and tremendous speed go a long way!

    I’d say a 100 point season isn’t too bad for the 21-22 season
