It’s how you think of yourself, wanting to be better, wanting to be the guy who has the puck and make plays, make the difference in the game," Boldy said. Their top offensive players didn’t produce when they were needed the most, but Boldy said it wasn’t about the pressure that comes with the playoffs. In 2023-24, Kaprizov will earn a base salary of 12,500,000, while carrying a cap hit of 9,000,000. They haven’t won a playoff series since 2015. Kirill Kaprizov signed a 5 year / 45,000,000 contract with the Minnesota Wild, including 45,000,000 guaranteed, and an annual average salary of 9,000,000.

I know I didn’t look the part, I didn’t look like my performance and my shape and like I typically do. That’s what happens, things happen and I can’t blame that for what happened and my performance in the series loss," Kaprizov said.
