Nick Bjugstad Moves To First Line With Mats Zuccarello Injured
Minnesota Wild forward Nick Bjugstad will replace Mats Zuccarello (lower body) on the first line Sunday against Nashville. Minnesota also reminds without Marcus Foligno (COVID-19 protocols) and Jordan Greenway (upper body), so Bjugstad makes a jump from the third line to the first. It's a very cozy spot for him, as Kirill Kaprizov has kept Minnesota's first line red-hot all season. Bjugstad boasts just 12 points in 53 outings this term, but he has previously had a couple of very decent offensive seasons and should fit nicely on the line.
