The WILD coaching strategy fits the conservative playoff style of the NHL perfectly. Jacques Lemaire did it with an average talent NJ Devil team - just may get it done this time too.

Cleveland lost their football team to Baltimore. With the new Browns, Cleveland is no longer a hard core football city??? Minneapolis had the Lakers. Timberwolves ... well may be a bad comparison ... they usually choke .... we will see this year.
Remember also that Norm Green was under at least one sexual harassment suit. I believe the law suit was filed by the daughter of a Mpls city politician and from a "hockey family". He was running away from MN as fast as he could for a multiple of reasons.
Bloomington also wanted M of A.
If it took a few years without a hockey team to get EXCEL then it was worth it. That arena is better than the old Met - hands down - not even close.
You and Brett Hull can spend the off season together. He made a similar comment after St. Paul was awarded the franchise.
State of Hockey: a little corny I suppose, but the WILD have an excellent marketing group. The access to players, practices, etc... that my son has had the past couple of years has been great. Talking with and autographs from these players makes many a young childs' day.
They also sponsor the 10,000 rinks program and have raised much $$$ for youth hockey.
WILD = A FIRST CLASS ORGANIZATION
