Minnesota Wild Fire Up Contract Talks With Impending Free Agents


Niklas Backstrom

After what they’ve done in the past 12 months or so, we probably shouldn’t expect the Minnesota Wild to make another Earth shattering move.

Minnesota Wild Center Matt Cullen Reflects on Missed Opportunity vs. Chicago Blackhawks


Jerome Miron-USA TODAY Sports

It’s a bit harsh to get too down after the type of season the Minnesota Wild just had, snapping a four-year playoff drought to earn their first playoff berth since 2008.
