Yeah, not crazy about "Wild" it's so bland and generic.

If they had only consulted me y'all would've had a way cooler name, such as:

Frozen Tundras

Ice Storms

Blizzards

Cold Freeze

(And don't foist the Hipsters on us. They're not Gen X)

Any of those name suggestions, are only valid 4 or 5 months out of the year, whereas the name "Wild" is valid 12 months out of the year, so much more valid in that ;name.

Hate the team name. Hated it when the announced it. All Minnesota sports teams have something to do with the state; Vikings, Timberwolves, Lynx, and Twins. Wild? What the hell is a Wild?

Love the logo and colors though.

Tenna-B a year or two ago said we were going to become the Patriots of the hockey, the Skatriots! Haha it's the Minnesota Mild now. I give Boudreau 1-2 months and he'll be fired.

This is nowhere near Boudreau's fault, but I agree he'll take the fall before season's end. I doubt it'll bother him.....he'll just jump to a better job anyway. Much as I hate to say it, this is exactly what needs to happen. The team is a faceless, smoldering turd......loaded with bad contracts and underperforming players. A few years of bottom feeding will at least put Guerin in position to draft some top level scoring talent. The Wild need a Crosby, an Ovechkin, a Towes or a Kane......SOMEONE they can build that team around. SOMEONE who makes the fans want to run out and buy their jersey.

Even with his Russian contract expiring after this season there still seems to be a question of whether this Kaprizov is coming to the Wild next year. If he doesn't they're really gonna be hurting.

The worst start to the season I can recall.


Change the name back to the NORTH STARS and that would single-handedly energize the base.

They need energized players and coaches, not fans.
