3:2 against Blue Jackets
Automatically saved draft
Marco Rossi from Vorarlberg has celebrated a successful start to the NHL season with the Minnesota Wild. Austria's only professional in the world's strongest ice hockey league celebrated a 3:2 home win against the Columbus Blue Jackets in St. Paul on Thursday (local time).
The 23-year-old forward was on the ice for just over 14 minutes in the first of 82 games in the NHL basic round, but did not register a scoring point.
Matt Boldy (18th), Joel Eriksson Ek (37th) and Mats Zuccarello (50th) scored for Minnesota on the power play. Kent Johnson equalized for the Blue Jackets in the second period (22nd), and Zach Werenski's tying goal (58th/PP) made the game exciting again shortly before the end. Rossi's strong performances in preparation had secured him a spot as the first-line center between star forwards Kirill Kaprisov and Zuccarello.
Seattle is waiting
The Wild, who started the season with play-off ambitions, continue their campaign on Sunday night with another home game against the Seattle Kraken.
