NHL Highlights | Hurricanes vs. Wild | November 19, 2025

No question for the Carolina Hurricanes. Look 
at this guy, Nikolai Eers. 10 years a Jet. He’s a new shiny toy here for Carolina and Rod 
Brindlemore. Took him a while to get heated up, guys. 11 games before he got his first goal, 
but has found a nice home on that second line with Stanovven and Blake. Curious to watch him 
as as his engine gets. He’s good for like 20 plus goals a year. Wheelers has certainly 
picked it up in the last little while. Shot on Martin as he moves in. plays it to the 
point. Garrett Spurgeon, the Minnesota captain, feathered it across Rodin for Eriksonette. 
Pass doorstep Johansson and Anderson has to come up with the goods. A big save in the 
early going for Anderson and and this puck and you see Johansson in front like he wants it. 
He knows he’s left all alone and through the scramble the Wild get possession. He has the 
time to sort of delay far side comes back to the near side but nice tracking of the puck. 
Back down the boards for the Hurricanes. They look to start a cycle out of the corner. The 
puck is stolen by Broaddin and clear. Fights through the stick check. Zarello overlapping 
with Caprio. A center pass. Zero scores. Less than two minutes in the 
game. Minnesota strikes first. What a pretty passing play. But this starts in 
your in the own in the own zone for the Wild and it was Eurovv in great positioning. This was his 
second touch in the defensive zone and he’s strong on the puck and he gets it up to Capri off and 
from there it’s tic-tactoe on the entry getting back and look at all these touches. Unbelievable. 
But that is a huge credit to Eurov and they know he’s very good defensively. Personality and 
character. I think that suits this Minnesota team so well. Meanwhile, Carolina right in Taylor 
Hall with a shot unavailable for Carolina in this game. Here’s Brock Favor the goal scorer for the 
Wild as he hands off the puck. Prod by Anderson. But for Shawn Walker pressed into duty because of 
all the injuries, Kobe, they’ve used 10 different defenseman in Carolina to start this season. 
Just ravaged by injuries on their blue line and gone a chance. Anderson, another save that 
on Euro. Notice Eurovv. And this is where he was responsible high in the zone and then gets this 
chance. He’s in tight. Not quite high enough. Damon Hunts in the corner. Stan Coven and onto the 
points. One-time Riley all the way on to goal. Try to connect with a man off the bench. It’s Jarvis 
to intercept and he’ll carry it the other way. Favor defending. Jarvis good by Favor. Darts 
to the net. Save Walst. Miller to the middle. Walker for Blake. Jackson. Blake. Starts in to the 
middle. Stan. Big save by Walte. Beautiful pass in the high slot area by Blake. Bouncing puck to the 
line. Walker holds the zone. and Eric Sek unable to take control. Stanco tight turn off the boards 
to Walker. Hard pass in front of Blake. There to pick it up though is Hall the back. Miller 
swallowed up by W and he gets in that shot lane. Oh, he turned it over. They’re going to come up with special. Here’s Matt 
Baldi with a step. He scores. A short-handed goal from Matt Balden who continues 
his tear to start the season. It’s two nothing Minnesota. Well, and this is a read that Birdie 
makes. What anticipation and for him from there, a quick few strides and an absolute burst as he 
flies to the net. and he knew Faber was joining him too on the rush with speed but he elects 
to take the shot. A nice heads up play nice and low in Vanderson even on that last goal. 
You see the anticipation, the read, the speed and the ability to finish. There’s Lucarelloo 
busting into the zone. Anderson traps the puck. Stall here handles stick off the draw. 
Here’s Shane Gsters in over the line. Gosters centers. Carier marches in. Saved by 
Wallstead. His positioning playing with a high level of confidence cuz this is Ker. He’s in 
tight and trying to go upstairs on Wallstead, but he I just feel like his positioning 
is so good. Aggressive enough that he’s shot attempts are 4819 Carolina. Turnover 
out in front. Blake. Blake hits the post. It’s his chance off a turnover. Great poise 
and patience. It’s Blake. Tight turn trying to shake Damon Hunt. Blake leads it in the corner. 
Stan Coven all the way to the point. Shot score. Jackson Blake finds a way and Carolina finally has 
a breakthrough on Yesper Walstead. It’s 2-1. Alex, that we’ve seen be very creative in the offensive 
zone. And so whether it’s that puck retrieval, you see Blake there with the turnover, that 
spin. And how many times have we seen him and Stan Kovven tonight work off each other, spin 
away from pressure and a simple play that goes over the point to Walker. But look at those 
two connecting, understanding where they’re going to be. And then after you do that, you 
see Blake going between Blake and Miller and Riley front. Jam attempt. Stall turned out. 
Biggest save of the night for Yes Walston. And here’s what Carolina does. They love to get 
shots through to the net and you see the presence in front. But this is exactly what Hines was 
talking about. Square to the puck, his movement and making sure that Stalla picks it up in the 
corner. Gives it away to Blake. Stan Co in tight saved by Walstead. Baldi has a goal here tonight, 
but they were quiet in that second period. comes super right off the hop 
barging in on the breakaway scores. Matt Sucarelloo 15 seconds into the third 
restores Minnesota’s two goal lead. Well, that’s one way to start a period. You think 
about this transition game and how quickly he gets up the ice. Zero starts his plan with 
the blue line and the patient the heads up that you’re in tight and he lifts that puck top shelf. 
That is not an easy task and Brendmore has spoke to us about that and just said how impressed 
he’s been by him. He knows he has to work on his face offs and that sometimes takes time 
but he said he’s constantly asking Britmore to go through more videos. How do I get better? 
Got six shots going across and oh scores. It’s a oneshot game once again. Sebastian Aaho lights 
the lamp. Well, that’s an elite shot by Aaho. So, transition game. How many times have we mentioned 
this? Getting up the ice and you see sketch the top. He knows where Aaho is. What a nice catch and 
release. That’s the key. Beautiful pass between the legs that finds its way across the seam and 
then Wall sets going in one direction. The shot is across the grain. Spurgeon down the wall on 
the pitch. Spurgeon all the way around the net and Estrosa diagonally. Folo tag by Anderson. 
Close Colby. So close. Wild got away with a high stick in the corner to hit Strosa down in 
the corner. But eventually this play just worked around going after it. Middleton tackles his 
man. Costas Bear picks it up. Feeds it across. A shot turned up by Wilston and it stays off the 
line. No call by the referee on the goal line. That may have bounced in over the line. Jackson 
Blake is heading to the bench up to determine what the call should be. Certainly looked from 
this angle that the puck crossed the line. See, it went under the pad of Walstead. They were 
looking at it down here on the monitors on the bench and they they were cheering down here. 
They must have saw something right there. It looks like it goes there. It’s fully in, but 
the officials seem to be in the right spot. The puck clearly one pad to the other and then 
crosses the goal. It goes under the net right there. Gains the line. leaves it for Spetchnikov. 
Shot blocked. Hops in the air. Stays in play. And another change for the Hurricanes to get fresh. 
Blake deep. Save by Walstead. Off the helmet of the goender Anderson. Here comes Carolina. 
Jackson Lake. Stopped by Walston. The rebound put wide. And we see Capri off in. And he goes 
for the short angle, but it goes off the post. And then you’ve got Blake coming down to his feet 
looking for the hattick. There’s a ball instead. Up first for Minnesota, it’s Matt Zucarella. 
And Zucarelloo stopped by the goal hand of Anderson. Deception by Zukarelloo. You’re coming 
in wide. You’re trying to create the angle, but his career in shootouts just one for seven. 
Comes in against Walston. And Walston able to get the pass to make the fake to move 
Walstead to the far post on his backhand, but doesn’t go quite far enough. And 
Walstead is able to hold tight to that post. Caprio saved by Anderson. There’s a look at Capri off coming 
in and just at that hash marks there trying to do the quick release. Andre 
Spetchnikov now moves in. Oh, lost. Wson and Spetchnikov has the reach as well. So when 
he makes the initial fake on the forehand, he opens that top hand and tries to lift it over 
with his reach. Walston sees out the answer for everything. Fight right there with his right 
leg, but came across aggressively at Baldi. slides it in on the back hand. Well, Kobe, we’ve 
been talking about him all night. The confidence, the poise with the puck. Taylor Hall taking 
in with speed. Saved by game over Minnesota.
