(ats) Kevin Fiala did not find the opening in front of the former Lugano goalkeeper Elvis Merzlikins during the penalty session to precipitate the loss of his team. This defeat is infuriating for the Wild insofar as the Blue Jackets equalized 32” from the siren by Zach Werenski.
Kevin Fiala, however, scored a 53rd point with a 33rd assist. Fiala now remains on a series of six ranked matches with at least one goal or one assist. Series to continue on Sunday when Roman Josi’s Nashville comes.
