For the record, I would have put HWSRN on there. I like the addition of Schultz, and don’t get me wrong, this would not be an easy list to make. So many choices in the “heart” category. Have to remember, only 4 places to put heads.

I think I would have substituted Nick Schultz for Wes Walz based on the fact that Walz played a pivotal role in the early years of the franchise. He was an older Mikko before we actually had Mikko; however, Schultz has put in his time and is a big leader for our team.

what about roloson or brunette? tough decisions but I probably would have picked one of those two over schultzy. Brunette deserves it for his famous goal against the Avs if nothing else

that said we should include people from the North Stars to this list instead of everybody else that’s on there. Do people not realize that the Wild are a different team, and that the Stars still exist down in Dallas?

But at the same time, it’s also very hard to argue with these choices. This is about the people who made the biggest impact on the franchise, and while Walz was the heart and soul of the team, Koivu’s our first permanent captain, Schultz has played the most games for the franchise and has done so pretty much in irreprochable fashion, Gaby of course is the best player (in terms of talent) to wear the jersey, and no one should be able to stage any sort of an argument against Lemaire.

Once again, great job Nathan, enjoyed it as always!
