After rookie Karel Vejmelka posted his first career shutout a night earlier at Winnipeg, Scott Wedgewood made the start in goal and stopped 32 shots for Arizona.

Keller got the Coyotes off to a strong start in the second game of the back-to-back, opening the scoring 5:58 into the first. Phil Kessel passed across the slot to Keller, who had trouble controlling the pass. But Keller gained control and fired a shot as he spun around, beating Kahkonen.

Minnesota answered with Eriksson Ek’s ninth goal of the season just over a minute later.

From then on, it was all Wild, who scored three times in the second period.

Kaprizov’s shot from the point deflected off Arizona defenseman Ilya Lyubushkin for Kaprizov’s seventh goal of the season. He has four goals and 10 assists in the last seven games, leading the NHL in scoring and assists during that stretch.

Jordan Greenway tipped home a shot from the point for his first goal of the season, and Brodin unleashed a big slap shot to score with 2.9 seconds left in the second.

Stralman’s goal stopped the Wild’s momentum, but Foligno answered less than two minutes later.

Minnesota has won eight straight games against Arizona, with each victory coming by at least three goals.
