ST PAUL, Minn. — Kaapo Kahkonen made 26 saves to notch his first career shutout for the Minnesota Wild in a 2-0 victory over Vegas.
That stopped the Golden Knights’ six-game winning streak.
Kahkonen won his seventh consecutive start, a franchise rookie goalie record. The 24-year-old native of Finland has allowed only 10 goals over his seven-game streak. Kevin Fiala and Jonas Brodin scored for the Wild.
Marc-Andre Fleury stopped 19 shots for the NHL-leading Golden Knights. The teams play again on Wednesday.
