Liam Ohgren scores his 1st career goal to lead the Wild past the Sharks 6
SAN JOSE, Calif. (AP) — Liam Ohgren scored his first career goal and the Minnesota Wild beat San Jose 6-2 on Saturday night to assure the Sharks of having the best odds to win the NHL draft lottery.
Ohgren, a first-round pick from the 2022 draft, made his NHL debut on Friday night in Las Vegas and delivered in a big way in his second career game.
He had an assist in the first period and then scored late in the second when Jonas Brodin’s point shot ricocheted right to Ohgren, who knocked it past Mackenzie Blackwood to make it 3-1.
“It was a great moment for me,” Ohgren said. “It was good timing because my brother and my dad leave today so I’m happy I did all that.”
Kirill Kaprizov added two goals in the final minute of the second period for the Wild, who were eliminated from playoff contention Tuesday night.
Matt Boldy, Declan Chisholm and Marcus Johansson also scored for Minnesota.
