The Minnesota Wild are a professional ice hockey team based in Saint Paul, Minnesota. The Wild competes in the National Hockey League (NHL) as a member of the Central Division in the Western Conference and play their home games at the Xcel Energy Center.[3]
The Wild were founded on June 25, 1997, but did not start playing until the 2000–01 season.[4] They were the first NHL franchise in Minnesota since the Minnesota North Stars moved to Dallas, Texas, in 1993. In the 2002–03 season, the Wild made their first Stanley Cup playoffs appearance, making a surprising run to the Western Conference Finals.[5]
