Rookie Danila Yurov snapped a tie for his first career goal with 11:44 remaining as the visiting Minnesota Wild halted a three-game losing streak with a 3-1 victory over the New York Rangers on Monday night.
Playing in his fifth career game, Yurov found himself in the right place at the right time after winning an offensive zone faceoff against Sam Carrick.
Marcus Johansson charged the net and attempted a wraparound that was stopped by goalie Igor Shesterkin but not controlled. New York defensemen Braden Schneider and Carson Soucy were unable to clear the puck and Yurov was positioned at the right side of the crease to jam in the rebound past Shesterkin, who was on his back.
Jonas Brodin scored the tying goal in the first period and Kirill Kaprizov scored an empty-net goal on a 136-foot shot with 96 seconds remaining.
Minnesota goalie Filip Gustavsson made 22 saves and halted his personal three-game losing streak. He had allowed 14 goals since a season-opening shutout of the St. Louis Blues, and his best stop Monday was a sprawling glove save on Mika Zibanejad with about 9 1/2 minutes left.
Artemi Panarin scored New York's first goal on home ice this season 57 seconds into the contest. The Rangers avoided matching the 1928-1929 Pittsburgh Pirates for the longest scoreless streak on home ice to start a season.
But New York fell to 0-4-0 at home and lost for the fourth time in five games since scoring 10 goals in road wins at Buffalo and Pittsburgh.
Shesterkin made 29 saves, including 15 in the first period when the Wild had 13 straight shots on net after Panarin's goal.
The Rangers ended their home scoreless streak by quickly moving the puck up the ice after the Wild missed the net.
Shesterkin banked the puck off the end boards and passed to Panarin up the ice. After a shot by Will Borgen went wide, Will Cuylle retrieved the puck behind the net and passed to Zibanejad in front. Panarin got by Yurov to lift a wrist shot from the lower left circle into the net.
Minnesota had the next 12 shots and tied it on a fluky bounce. After Joel Eriksson Ek won an offensive zone faceoff, Brodin stepped into a wrist shot in the right circle, the puck hopped over Alexis Lafreniere's stick and by Shesterkin's left arm with 14:50 left.
