Nikita Zaitsev and Travis Dermott’s respective minutes
On potentially bumping Zaitsev out of the top four:
I am kind of wondering if he is going to be bumped out of the top four in the final few minutes, but they like him at the end of games for some reason. They have consistently gone with him, whether he is getting the last shift or the shift before. But we haven’t them too much with Jake Muzzin, who hasn’t played a ton…. He’s only played 19 or so minutes [against Ottawa] so I feel like they are just easing him in and that will kind of course correct itself.
