Russian rookie sensation Kirill Kaprizov makes his Becoming Wild debut, presented By Toyota. From deep in the heart of Siberia to the ice here in St. Paul, learn more about the journey that led Kaprizov to the Wild.
I feel there is one comment that is not brought up enough -as a regular average Russian guy from Moscow - Thank you so much, Minnesota fans, for the warmest welcome you have shown Kirill Kaprizov - it means a lot to us!!!!! Thank you for such hospitality! Simply gratitude, friends!!!
That's Minnesota Nice for ya! We LOVE him and everything he's brought to the team! It's been amazing to watch and hearing his whole story makes me love him more 💚💛🤍
Don’t wanna get political here, but hockey is absolutely excellent for Russian-American/Canadian relations.....we’re brothers in the sport, all excellent hockey countries..all positivity & love man, hockey and sports are a universal language
The Wild will be building this team around Kaprizov for years... prospects like Marco Rossi and Matt Boldy are elite talents that will only make this team better. Don't forget they are rebuilding right now and no where near finished. The window is 5-7 years right now and once Parise and Suter are gone they will have a whole lot of cap space to spend on more high end players. I think he is happy here and as long as the team is good he will stay. Let's hope winning a cup with Minnesota means more to him than with another team.
He adds a ton of excitement in watching games. My sons summer league he asked what number he wanted. Without hesitation he yelled "97! Dolla dolla bill kirill!"
@Trevor Rohwer I could not agree more, we have a whole state rooting for this team we love having Russian fans as well. I can not wait until the 2022 winter classic in Target field that will be a fun game to watch. I am sure Kirill has played many games in the cold growing up just like Minnesota kids.
I've lived in Michigan and been a Detroit Red Wing fan for 30+ yrs... now I have Minnesota Wild gear with 97 leading the pack. This kid is special and So much fun to watch. He reminds me of #91 of Detroit, also a Russian born skater.
@@user-wu9oj9xs1j I love it friend, thank you for the support and your superstar player Kaprizov. We love him here. Cheer loudly across the pond for us!
Необходимо отметить менеджмент Миннесоты , создали условия , человек адаптировался и даёт результат , все сошлось как говорится , удачи только можно пожелать!!!
давайте узнаем как как Капризов относится к оккупации Россией 4 областей Украины? что думает о Путине, захвате чужих территорий. бомбардировок ТЕЦ и АЭС? давайте узнаем
Согласен, как пример канал Bardown Beauties, две девченки вели себе спокойно подкаст пока в город не прихал Кирилл К. Сейчас туда набежали "с детства за Миннесоту" русские и им пришлось сделать рус. сабы, (знают что мы не знаем их язык) еще и на коменты по-русски отвечают))
@@user-sy4kf9ju1m я больше охренел от того как хорошо они разбираются в хоккее, я конечно не сексист, но мне тежело представить диалог с дамой на эту тему))
Greetings from a Finnish Minnesota Wild fan. I've been waiting for Kirill to arrive to Minnesota for several years now and oh boy has the wait been worth it! He's everything I was hoping for and maybe even more. I'm a lucky guy, living in Helsinki I have been able to watch Kirill live occasionally when his KHL team has visited my town.
Question for you: Americans that are fans of foreign soccer/futball club teams (not national teams for purposes of the world cup) seem to do it based on their favorite players. Is that generally similar for foreign hockey fans that they cheer for the teams that have their favorite players instead of being a fan of a specific team? The Wild have had a number of Fins, but so do many other teams.
Man this dude is a legit Russian player. My family is from Eastern Europe/ Russia and tons of Russians come here and play and can act cocky, think they can play here and struggle but this dude has something special and has a super good attitude. It’s going to take him far.
@@AntonSkrundevskiy The Wild have a top-level center prospect coming next season in Marco Rossi. Marco only got delayed because he came down with Covid late last year. Thankfully, his doctors have cleared him for training already!
I've never watched hockey prior to this year. I heard of this guy I liked his story so I bought tickets to a wild game and I've been watching ever since.
Кирилл простой русский парень ,с постоянной улыбкой на лице ,молодец здоровье и удачи тебе оставайся всегда таким простым и жизнерадостным человеком......
That moment 16:35 when General manager says “Pozhaluysta” in Russian is giving me hope, that Kirill is the in right place. Good Luck, Mr Kaprizov! Good luck Minnesota!
This kid is the real deal! Such down to earth, he loves hockey and we LOVE hockey here in MN. We respect his intelligence the most. High IQ player. We love Kaprizi! He makes it look easi!
Such an exciting young player to watch. As a Wild fan living in Minnesota, I can say he's added so much to the team already. Every time the puck is on his stick he does something special. I can't wait to see what he does as he continues to grow as a player.
If in the 1980s give or take minnesota was given kaprizov the cold war would have ended both people from minnesota and Russia love his play and we love him. I'm glad we are both combining into loving the wild
Ну что ж, прошёл год. Помню, как ждали первый сезон Капризова в НХЛ с надеждой, что всё у него получится. Очень радует, что Кирюха оправдывает надежды болельщиков! Работяга, парень)
Уважаемые болельщики из Миннесоты,Если даже в каких то играх он себя не будет проявлять,как хочется болельщикам, огромная просьба словами не разбрасываться. Поддержите его в любых позициях. Он классный парень
Оно видно ,что Кирилл будто уже несколько сезонов играет в Миннесоте. Хорошо влился Вперед за рекордами в НХЛ! Каждый раз смотрю матчи Вайлд и Рейнджерс из-за Капризова и Панарина
Great movie, Minnesota! Thanks for such respect and a warm welcome for russian players! And all the bets to Kirill! We miss you man, but we're very happy for you!
This guy is absolutely GOLDEN !!! Minnesota do anything you can to keep this talent on your team at least for few years or he will make other teams way to much benefit,KIRILL THE $1000000 BILL !!!!!
👋🐻😉. очень рад за нашего парня Каприза 🔥💪 долго ждали его в нхл и именно в этот клуб успехов побед и удачи 97 🐻 думаю кубок с ним будет ближе дерзайте дальше болеем за 🐻👍✊😎
Even though were supposed to be rivals, I can't stop myself from loving so many Avs players. Mackinnon, Makar, Rantanen, Girard, Byram, Burakovsky, Landeskog to name a few, and especially the MN native Hunter Miska! I just love how this game is progressing and it's not just filled with a bunch of goons anymore. Best of luck in the playoffs!
As far as I understand, Kirill is the person who revived the entire team, the entire franchise, or whatever you call it, sorry, I don't know. So the money will flow, and with all this, he plays hockey perfectly :) The best find for Minnesota ! I, a person who has never been particularly interested in the NHL (except for the Russian players I looked after, Ovi, of course, Kuzya :) I only found out about your club because of Kirill, but I became a big fan of yours! I like the way things are developing! Good luck to us all!
Сначала была русская пятерка в Детройте (то, из-за чего я заболел хоккеем). Потом был Овечкин (он был, есть и будет). Потом появился Панарин. А теперь есть еще и Капризов. Это те люди, из-за которых у меня хронический недосып уже более 25 лет. Но за Кирюху душа переживает больше всего.

Seemed like destiny for the Wild to get Kirilla! And it took a bit of what seemed like divine intervention to get him - smog from Cali forest fires clouding over Siberia that forced a Wild player scout to stay longer than planned in Novokuznetsk, leading them to watch a game where he was playing! And the rest was history!
Should say that this film is a great job, the way you welcome Kirill that was awesome. That what makes us closer to each other, we all love this game and I wish all the best to Minnesota hope that will get Stanley cup some day, I am absolutely positive about that. All the best to the crew of Minnesota, bestest to all fans all big luck to the players. Hugs from Russia.
I know there is a lot of people from Russia that are going to watch this. What do you guys think of him coming to Minnesota and the NHL and having the success that he has had? Is it frustrating that he is not in the KHL anymore or do you guys get just as exited as Minnesotans to see him playing for the wild?
We're just happy for him and waiting for his goals or passes. There is no frustration absolutely. Because for all normal fans it's obvious KHL can't compete with NHL. We want more Russian players to play in the best hockey league among the best players.
I am just happy for him, he played well in Moscow's CSKA, we knew well ahead that he is going to Minnie. Personally, I didn't know what to think of it. The Wilds was not the best option that's what I thought, not quite a contender. I also had some fears that he won't be up to a good start with the Wilds - such things happen when players from overseas when they come over to the NHL. I'm really happy for him. He like put Minnie back on the NHL map, brought some fresh energy to the team, hope he keeps up the good work. The Wilds is a whole different team now. That's great.
I want to welcome all the wild ones! As one of the new fans from Russia! All our strength and all our love is now directed towards Minnesota! You have no idea how much we support you! Thank you so much for receiving him so warmly! And I have one huge request. Please protect him, even though he can stand up for himself! With great respect, your big fan from Russia!
