PREVIOUS GAME WILD C. CANADIAN

The Canadian got back to work Wednesday after conceding the loss to the Tampa Bay Lightning yesterday. Head coach Claude Julien made some changes to his offensive lineups at the dawn of the Minnesota Wild tour at the Bell Center on Thursday night.

Used in the fourth offensive unit since the beginning of the season, Paul Byron took the place of Jordan Weal on the second trio completed by Max Domi and Artturi Lehkonen.

Weal has been limited to one assist in his last five games, and has a differential of minus 3. Byron has also had a difficult start to the season with only one pass in six games. Limited to four shots on goal, the small striker could claim alongside Domi, who already has six points this season.

"Paul suffered an injury at the end of the season. He came back this year, he still missed preparatory matches. This is not the departure he had anticipated. His speed is scary to everyone, he can bring good pressure offensively, "said Julien. "There is still a check mark in his game, maybe it can help on that trio. "

The composition of the fourth trio seemed more uncertain. Nate Thompson, Nick Suzuki, Nick Cousins ​​and Weal formed a four-player unit. Cousins ​​has still not taken part in a single match since the start of the regular calendar.

While talking with the media, defender Cale Fleury escaped admitting that he thinks he is in uniform against the Wild. In a press conference, Julien confirmed that there is a good chance that the rookie makes his return to the game, having been removed from the training during the last three meetings.

"He was told to get ready," said Julien. "Either we give him the chance to come back or we send him to Laval. One thing is certain, Fleury must play and not spend too much time in the stands. "

Logically, the return of Fleury could dismiss Christian Folin from the formation.

The Wild will complete a three-game trek after winning in Ottawa before losing to Toronto. Bruce Boudreau's men have won just one of their six games since the start of the season.

With 14 goals and 25 goals against, the Wild has the second-worst goal differential in the NHL (-11). The team's offensive flaws are obvious as the team's top three scorers are defenders. Jared Spurgeon, Brad Hunt and Ryan Suter have four points each. Marcus Foligno is the only striker on the team with three points.

Alex Stalock will be the starting goalkeeper of the Wild against the CH.
