Kings coach Darryl Sutter feels Jacob Muzzin is "struggling a lot."
Muzzin scored the lone Kings goal during Monday's 3-1 loss to the New York Rangers, but he also played a role in a key turnover. "Muzzin [is] going to have to learn not to turn the puck over if he wants to play, period," Sutter said. The coach also suggested that he probably should have made Muzzin a healthy scratch at the start of the season so that the young defenseman would have had more time to get back into game shape after suffering a knee injury during training camp. That being said, Sutter isn't committing to scratching Muzzin now.
