Big changes in the Wild lines tonight, folks. Take a look, soak them in, and then likely forget them for Thursday. It's all about getting guys going, and hopefully it works. We won't see Mike Rupp tonight, but we will see a fourth line like the Wild have never skated before. How that works will go a long way to determining if this game is won or lost.

Enjoy the game, all.

Five Questions:

  1. How does Charlie Coyle look in his NHL debut?
  2. Can the 4th line play like a... you know... 4th line?
  3. Message received?
  4. Would the first line care to join the rest of the team?
  5. Road win #1?
