Haight, 20, did not record a point in the 7-1 win over Moose Jaw but he had three shots, was a plus-2, and went 8-for-13 on the faceoff dot.
He faced off against Kalem Parker, another Wild prospect. Parker finished the game as a minus-3. The two spent weeks together before the season at the Wild's rookie and development camps.
Last night, Haight and the Saginaw Spirit came out on top. The Wild's 47th overall pick in the 2022 NHL Draft will turn pro next season but before that, he will square off against the London Knights in the Memorial Cup Finals.
