NHL » Kevin Fiala continued his incredible festival. Author of a double for his 31st and 32nd goals of the season in the NHL championship, the Saint-Gallois was the great architect of the success on the score of 6-3 from Minnesota in front of Vancouver. In Saint-Paul, Kevin Fiala opened the scoring before scoring 4-3 on a personal feat in the 48th minute. He, in fact, circled around the cage before arming a throw that left goalkeeper Thatcher Demko no chance. He was logically elected man of the match once more.
Kevin Fiala now has 77 points. He remains on a series of eight ranked matches with at least one point to his credit. “To be on fire as he can be is one thing. But allowing the team to win is another, said Wild coach Dean Evason. He does it wonderfully.” Thanks to this success, Minnesota consolidated its second place in the Central Division standings. The Wild already know their opponent in the first round of the play-offs. It will be Saint-Louis, whom he has never beaten this season in three games.
Pius Suter was the other Swiss for the evening. The Zurich man delivered two assists on the two goals scored by his Detroit team during the heavy 7-2 defeat at Sunrise once morest the Florida team. His record one week from the end of the regular season stands at 35 points (14 goals and 21 assists). Already 8 more than last season, his first in the NHL championship, under the colors of Chicago.
