Minnesota Wild top defending champion Golden Knights 5-3 in Vegas
LAS VEGAS (AP) — Joel Eriksson Ek scored twice and the Minnesota Wild beat the Vegas Golden Knights 5-3 on Monday night for their third straight win.
Mats Zuccarello, Marco Rossi and Matt Boldy also scored to help Minnesota win for the sixth time in eight games. Filip Gustavsson made 27 saves.
Jonathan Marchessault, Michael Amadio and Mark Stone scored for Vegas, while Adin Hill stopped 24 shots.
One night after the Super Bowl became the most-watched program in television history up the road at Allegiant Stadium, a sellout crowd of 18,207 inside T-Mobile Arena saw the defending champion Golden Knights lose just their third home game in 2024.
“The management of the puck to set our game up to spend a lot of time in the offensive zone was really strong,” Minnesota coach John Hynes said. “So it’s great to get the two points. But the thing I’m most encouraged about is the process of the last two games, the style of game and commitment that it’s going to take to be able to win down the stretch.”
With the game tied at 2-all, the Wild retook the lead when Rossi punched in a rebound after Hill made an initial save and thought he had the rebound when it dropped out of his glove, and the puck bounced into the crease. Boldy made it a two-goal game 61 seconds later when he tapped in a floater from the goal line.
“I was thinking just throw it to the net, to be honest,” Boldy said. “It wasn’t much to it, just got lucky.”
The loss spoiled Vegas defenseman Alex Pietrangelo’s 1,000th career game. Pietrangelo had two assists to become the sixth defenseman in NHL history to record multiple assists in his 1,000th career game. The two-time Stanley Cup champion was celebrated before the game.
Marchessault became just the ninth player in NHL history to score in under 30 seconds in consecutive contests when his chip shot from the goal line clipped Minnesota defenseman Brock Faber’s skate and dropped behind Gustavsson just 22 seconds into the game.
Marchessault scored 19 seconds into a 3-2 win at Arizona last Thursday.
The Wild took advantage of a 5-on-3 power play midway through the first when Zuccarello one-timed a pass from Kirill Kaprizov to tie the score. Minnesota took the lead less than two minutes later when Eriksson Ek tapped a rebound over Hill’s right leg from in front of the crease.
Amadio scored his 50th career goal when he ripped a shot past Gustavsson from the top of the right circle to tie the score late in the first.
After a scoreless second, things heated up in the final period when the Wild scored their back-to-back goals nearly a minute apart.
Stone cut the lead to one shortly thereafter when his blast from the top of the right circle blew past Gustavsson, but Eriksson Ek’s empty-net goal provided the final margin.
“I thought we mismanaged pucks between the blues after the first five minutes,” Vegas coach Bruce Cassidy said. “I’m not making excuses but I was concerned today about how our energy level would be. It started out well and then some of the guys we rely on didn’t quite have it tonight either.”

US Bank vice chair and chief administration officer Terry Dolan is believed to have been a passenger on the small plane that crashed into a house in a northern suburb of Minneapolis, Minnesota, on Saturday, the bank announced on Sunday, according to NBC News.
A bank spokesperson clarified that the small plane was registered to Dolan, NBC continued.
Brooklyn Park Fire Chief Shawn Conway stated at a Saturday news conference that while it is unclear how many people were onboard the plane, there were no survivors.
The plane was a single-engine SOCATA TBM7, according to the National Transportation Safety Board. This plane model is able to carry six people.
The plane crashed into a home, causing a fire, Conway confirmed. The home was completely destroyed, CBS News added, with a neighboring home experiencing “minor damage to the siding and yard,” CBS added, quoting the fire department.
“A SOCATA TBM7 crashed in a residential area in Brooklyn Park, Minnesota, around 12:20 p.m. local time on Saturday, March 29. The plane departed from Des Moines International Airport in Iowa and was headed to Anoka County-Blaine Airport in Minneapolis. We do not yet know how many people were on board,” the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) stated on Saturday.
“The FAA and the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) will investigate. The NTSB will be in charge of the investigation and will provide any updates,” the FAA confirmed.
“The investigation is just getting started. We don’t have a lot of answers right now,” NTSB aviation accident investigator Tim Sorensen commented, according to CNN.
Investigators will examine “all other aspects that may have affected the operation, such as the weather, such as the background experience of the pilot, the status of the aircraft, maintenance of the aircraft,” Sorensen added.
Two people live inside the home, but only one was inside at the time, and they were able to escape to safety, Brooklyn Park authorities announced.
Political and local responses
Minnesota Governor and recent Democratic Party vice-presidential candidate Tim Walz posted on social media that he was closely monitoring the situation and was “grateful to the first responders answering the call.”

Brooklyn Park Mayor Hollies Winston thanked Walz for his support, CNN reported.
A neighbor, quoted by USA Today, told local CBS news affiliate WCCO-TV that her “whole house shook like I’d never seen” before they “ran and looked out the window and saw the billowing smoke.”
Another neighbor told ABC-affiliate KSTP that she “can’t imagine this happening to anybody.”

Washington:
At least one person was killed after a small plane flying from Iowa to Minnesota in the United States crashed into a house in a Minneapolis suburb Saturday. The house caught fire after the aircraft crashed into it and was destroyed, but its residents were not hurt, Brooklyn Park spokesperson Risikat Adesaogun said.
Investigators said it was not yet known how many people were aboard the single-engine SOCATA TBM7 aircraft, but reports said there were no survivors among the passengers.
According to the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), the aircraft departed from the Des Moines International Airport with a destination of the Anoka County-Blaine Airport, located in another Minneapolis suburb. It crashed in Brooklyn Park, a suburb of Minneapolis. The city of 82,000 people lies about 11 miles to the north of the incident.
The National Transportation Safety Board is investigating.
Videos of the crash on social media show the aircraft free-falling from the sky before crashing into the residential area.

According to Brooklyn Park Fire Chief Shawn Conway, the blaze had developed into a “fully involved structure fire” by the time the fire department arrived at the scene.
Meanwhile, Minnesota Governor Tim Waltz said his team was “in touch with local officials on the scene in Brooklyn Park and we are monitoring the situation closely”.
“Grateful to the first responders answering the call,” he added.
The crash follows a number of such tragedies and near misses since US President Donald Trump and his cabinet started making cuts to federal agencies. Hundreds of employees responsible for aiding air safety were fired under the Trump administration’s cost-cutting measures, according to the Associated Press.
