Blues' Nail Yakupov tallies two points in 3-2 win over Wild

St. Louis Blues winger Nail Yakupov posted one goal and one assists as the Blues beat the Minnesota Wild 3-2 on Thursday.

What It Means:

It was Yakupov's first game with the Blues, and he made a good impression on his new team. His goal was a go-ahead goal in the second period, and he assisted the game-winner in the third.

Our models project Yakupov for 13 goals and 21 assists on the season, and he's already well on his way to meeting those marks.
