Kirill Kaprizov scored with 23.4 seconds left in overtime and the Minnesota Wild rallied to beat the visiting Vancouver Canucks 3-2 on Tuesday night for their sixth victory in eight National Hockey League games.

Frederick Gaudreau and Jake Middleton also scored for Minnesota, and Filip Gustavsson made 30 saves. The Wild improved to 17-4-4, giving them an NHL-best 38 points.

Brock Boeser nearly won it for Vancouver on a two-on-none break, but his shot was just wide of the right post. A lively bounce off the end boards went out to Marco Rossi, who carried the puck into the Canucks91ÂãÁÄÊÓƵ™ zone and fed Kaprizov for a one-timer at the end of a lengthy shift. His 16th goal of the season was his ninth career OT winner.

Quinn Hughes and Jake DeBrusk scored for Vancouver, and Elias Pettersson had two assists. Kevin Lankinen made 26 saves but lost for the first time in 11 road starts.

DeBrusk scored with 41 seconds left in the second period for a 2-1 lead, but Middleton tied it less than two minutes into the third.
