Somewhere in time
After Kaprizov went to the locker room to fix his lip the Wild's game really completely fell apart. And even before that the PP was clueless on how to handle the pressure by the Kings. First real stinker of a game this season. Going to be interesting how they will respond in the next games.

Time to move Mojo off the 2nd line. He’s not adding anything there. I think Hartman deserves Top 6 time. I’d slot him in for Zucc and drop Zucc down with Boldy & JEE.

Agreed, though JEE and Boldy aren't creating a lot 5 v 5, either. I don't know that Hartman is the guy for that line.

I think that JEE should move up with Kap and Zucc, Rossi down with Boldy and Hartman. Mojo down on the 3rd, or 4th....I don't really care.

Man, Trenin is a zero, for me. I keep hearing about how good his analytics are, but his play sure doesn't match my eye test. He has one point in 12gp. Duhaime has 4 in 11 gp, and costs half as much.

I don’t hate swapping Cs in the Top 6. I think Trenin will come around. He’s always been more productive than this.

I hope so. He looks like an absolute klutz when the puck is anywhere near him right now.

I almost posted this a couple games ago, even while the Wild were winning and that line was scoring:
There are two good players on that line, and one guy who is just on the ice, and Mojo is that third guy. He isn't bringing anything to that line right now, he needs to get moved off it.

Now that the 5v5 scoring has dried up for that line as well, it seems obvious he should get moved off of it in the hopes of sparking something with a new addition to the line.

We dominated the first part of the game territorially, but weren't getting great chances. LA defended well. Our small guys couldn't get inside to get rebounds or deflect pucks, and our big guys didn't.
Kind of scary how dependent we are on Kap to have even a pulse, offensively.
