Probably really close to none of it.
Are the coaches that dumb or what's going on? Los Angeles doesn't have the depth that Minnesota has defensively (can't name a defenseman after Doughty? Uh? Forbot? Martinez? Phaenuf?)...and Seth Jones plays almost a minute less per game than Suter. Even Josi plays more than a minute less than him.
He gets 2 minutes more than Spurgeon, 6 minutes more than Brodin. He gets 40 seconds more on the power play than Spurgeon.
If you look at Nashville, Subban only has 23 seconds less than Josi on the PP and Ellis, Josi, Ekholm and Subban are all less than three minutes apart in ice time. Josi has 25:12, Subban has 22:36 with Ellis at 24:09 and Ekholm at 23:22. Minnesota has Suter at 26:52, Spurgeon at 24:01, Brodin at 20:32 and...Pateryn at 17:08. Dumba was at 23:23 before he went down. Look at the drop off between the first and third defensemen in Minnesota.
Let's look at Dallas and St. Louis as well, because their goals are doing pretty good. And New York and Tampa Bay:
Alex Pietrangelo is at 23:49, Parayko is at 22:45, Bouwmeester is at 20:36 and Edmundson is at 19:27. A difference of 4 minutes and 22 seconds between the 1st and 4th defensemen for St. Louis and 1 minute, 4 seconds between 1st and 2nd. Remember, Minnesota is 2 minutes and 51 seconds for 1st and 2nd and 6 minutes and 20 seconds for 1st and 3rd. Between 1st and 4th is 9 minutes and 44 seconds, but Pateryn is trash.
Pulock (who?) leads the Islanders with 22:15 minutes, Leddy is next with 21:45, Boychuk is at 18:54 and Mayfield is at 18:49 (who?). Between the 1st and 4th is 3 minutes and 26 seconds, and between 1st and 2nd is 30 seconds.
Hedman is at 22:45, McDonagh is at 21:54, Stralman is at 20:30 and Cernak is at 19:01. So, between 1st and 4th is 3 minutes and 44 seconds and between 1st and 2nd, 51 seconds.
Klingberg is at 24:34, Lindell is at 24:31, Heiskanen is at 23:05 and Polak is at 19:15. So between 1st and 4th is 5 minutes and 19 seconds. 1st and 2nd is 3 seconds.
So, I have to reiterate:
Minnesota doesn't trust their 4th defenseman (Pateryn), which is why Suter gets all of the minutes instead of smoothing it out like Dallas, where they have three defensemen in line with another and their fourth gets a lot less, but still a fourth defenseman. Just seems odd that there is almost a 10 minute (half a period) discrepancy between 1st and 4th defensemen time on the Wild. Which means they need another defensemen they can trust (hopefully Dumba comes back and smooths it out, but still 6 minutes in between 1st and 3rd is insane, since not even 1st and 4th have that much difference).
