Yakov Trenin returning to form as NHL’s top hitman

Trenin leads the NHL with 107 hits in 23 games due to offseason conditioning that improved his quickness and stamina, creating key plays for the Minnesota Wild.

  • Sunday, Minnesota Wild forward Yakov Trenin is leading the NHL with 107 hits and has a goal and four assists through his first 23 games.
  • At training camp, Yakov Trenin showed up in some of the best shape of his career, with offseason adjustments making him quicker, more explosive and improving his stamina.
  • In the second period Yakov Trenin hit Jets forward Nino Niederreiter behind the net, regained the puck, and fed Wild rookie Danila Yurov for the only goal in the 3-0 win in Winnipeg.
  • Team officials say Trenin's physical play sets the tone and 'bleeds into the group,' while Wild coach John Hynes recognizes his increased impact.
  • After a little more than one-fourth of his second season, Yakov Trenin's offense is steady while his forecheck hitting turns heads for the Wild.
