While we all wait impatiently for the NHL to release the regular season schedule, the Wild have released their pre-season schedule. The schedule features home and away games against Saint Louis, Edmonton, and Columbus, along with one game against the mighty Penguins. Saint Louis and Columbus are favorite pre-season opponents, likely due to proximity.

If nothing else, this gives you a date for when you can begin to claw your way out of hibernation.  

Make the jump for the full schedule.
