Impact Trenin had recorded a minus-3 rating over his two appearances leading up to Monday's matchup, but he was more effective against the Avalanche and got on the scoresheet for just the third time over his last 12 outings. The 28-year-old has appeared in each of the Wild's 13 matchups following a five-game absence due to an upper-body injury, and he's racked up multiple hits in 11 of those appearances.

Slings helper in loss Trenin provided an assist, four hits and two PIM in Thursday's 6-1 loss to the Avalanche.

Impact Trenin helped out on Zach Bogosian's tally late in the first period. With four points over eight games since he returned from an upper-body injury, Trenin is in one of his best stretches of the season, but that's not saying much for his offense. He has just seven points with 33 shots on net, 18 PIM, a plus-6 rating and 109 hits over 37 outings overall.

Capitalizes on mistake in win Trenin netted a shorthanded goal on three shots and added three hits, one blocked shot and one takeaway in 12:58 of ice time in Thursday's 4-3 shootout win over Washington.

Impact Trenin gave his club a 2-1 lead late in the opening stanza after Charlie Lindgren turned the puck over behind the net. Trenin had just one point across the first two months of the season, but he's been more productive of late with three goals and two helpers over his last 10 games. The Russian forward is known more for his physical style of play -- he's averaging just under three hits per game in 2024-25. Through 34 appearances, Trenin has contributed three goals, three assists, 16 PIM, 30 shots on goal, 100 hits, 18 blocked shots and a plus-6 rating.

Contributes two helpers in return Trenin notched two assists, two hits and a plus-2 rating in Monday's 4-3 win over the Blackhawks.

Impact Trenin missed five games due to an upper-body injury. He had done little on offense prior to the injury, though he scored twice in the four games before his absence. For the season, the physical forward has five points, 23 shots on net, 84 hits, 14 PIM and a plus-6 rating through 30 contests. Trenin is likely to fill a bottom-six role going forward, and his limited scoring upside will preclude him from being a factor in most fantasy formats.

Progressing in recovery Trenin (upper body) has been participating in team skates recently and is making progress in his recovery, Jessi Pierce of NHL.com reports Friday.

Impact Trenin has missed three consecutive games due to an upper-body injury, and he was placed on injured reserve Thursday. While he'll be sidelined Friday against Utah and will likely be unavailable for Saturday's game against Winnipeg, it seems as though he's closer to day-to-day than week-to-week. However, it's not yet clear whether he'll be able to return before the NHL's Christmas break.

Impact Trenin has missed the last three games due to his upper-body injury, and it's not yet clear when he'll be able to return to action. Prior to his absence, he logged two goals, an assist, 82 hits, 15 blocked shots and 14 PIM while averaging 13:37 of ice time over 29 appearances this season. Devin Shore was also sent to AHL Iowa on Thursday, so it's not yet clear who will occupy a fourth-line role for the Wild during the team's back-to-back set that includes games against Utah on Friday and against Winnipeg on Saturday.

Unavailable Wednesday Trenin (upper body) won't play Wednesday versus Florida, per Sarah McLellan of the Minneapolis Star Tribune.

Impact It will be Minnesota's third straight game without Trenin. He has two goals, three points, 14 PIM and 82 hits in 27 appearances in 2024-25. Brendan Gaunce, who was recalled from AHL Iowa on Monday, is set to make his Minnesota debut.

Questionable Wednesday Trenin (upper body) remains a doubt ahead of Wednesday's matchup with Florida, Sarah McLellan of the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports.

Impact Trenin was working in a non-contact jersey Tuesday but head coach John Hynes wasn't willing to rule him out for Wednesday's contest. If Trenin can't play, the Wild will have to either deploy seven defensemen or keep Devin Shore up in the NHL for a little longer -- assuming he clears waivers Tuesday.

Sitting out Sunday Trenin (upper body) won't play Sunday against the Golden Knights, according to Dylan Loucks of The Hockey News.

Impact Trenin will miss his second straight game. He has two goals, one assist, 22 shots on net, 15 blocked shots and 82 hits across 29 appearances this season. Devin Shore will replace Jakub Lauko (lower body) in Sunday's lineup, while Trenin's spot will go to Travis Dermott or Reese Johnson.

Might play Sunday Trenin (upper body) might be available to play Sunday versus Vegas, but a final decision hasn't been made, according to Jessi Pierce of NHL.com.

Impact Trenin missed Saturday's game against Philadelphia due to the injury. He has a goal, three points and 82 hits in 29 appearances in 2024-25. If Trenin is able to play Sunday, then it will likely be as part of the fourth line.

Scores late to prevent shutout Trenin scored a goal and added two hits in Saturday's 4-1 loss to the Kings.

Impact Trenin couldn't buy a goal over the first two months of the season, but he's now scored in back-to-back games. His tally Saturday had no impact other than breaking up Darcy Kuemper's shutout bid with 1:13 to go in the contest. Trenin is at three points, 19 shots on net, 73 hits, 14 PIM and a plus-6 rating over 27 appearances, and his limited offense in a bottom-six role shouldn't intrigue many fantasy managers.

Deposits empty-netter Trenin scored a shorthanded empty-net goal and added three hits in Friday's 5-1 win over the Ducks.

Impact The goal was Trenin's first of the season, and it was his first point since Oct. 19 versus the Blue Jackets. The 27-year-old has stayed in the lineup amid his lengthy slump, playing in a bottom-six role. In addition to his two points, Trenin has produced 71 hits, 14 PIM, 18 shots on net and a plus-6 rating over 26 appearances. He's not a notable depth scorer, so he has very limited fantasy value.

In 2024-25, he's at one assist, 14 shots, 62 hits, 10 PIM and a plus-4 rating over 21 outings in a bottom-six role. Trenin's a non-factor in fantasy until he shows something more on offense.

Contributes helper in win Trenin picked up an assist, two hits and six PIM in Saturday's 3-1 win over the Blue Jackets.

Impact Trenin earned his first point as a member of the Wild when he set up a Marco Rossi goal in the first period. The 27-year-old Trenin signed a four-year deal this offseason, mainly to bring some grit to the Wild's bottom six. He's done that so far with 13 hits and eight PIM over five appearances. He's never produced more than 24 points in a season, so he shouldn't be expected to take a step forward in that area, but he can produce around 200 hits over a full campaign.

Impact Signed to a four-year deal in July, Trenin does not appear to have any lingering concerns from the upper-body injury that kept him out of the Avalanche's last playoff contest. He'll compete for a bottom-six role with the Wild, though his contract assures he'll be in the lineup most of the time. Between Colorado and Nashville last year, Trenin produced 12 goals, five assists, 40 PIM, 116 shots on goal and 207 hits in 76 regular-season contests.

Trenin will likely serve in a bottom-six capacity with Minnesota.
