Minnesota Wild
vs
Los Angeles Kings
It's finally game night WIlderness. After spending all summer waiting and counting down to the first faceoff of the season, GAME ONE of the the 2013-2014 season is upon us.
Rookie Matt Dumba won't be making his NHL debut tonight, but UMD favorite Justin Fontaine will be.
Some fun facts about tonight's game:
- The Minnesota Wild have never lost a home opener at the Xcel
- The Wild roster has 11 1st round picks (Ballard, Coyle, Koivu, Parise, Heatley, Suter, Niederreiter, Granlund, Brodin, Rupp, Dumba)
- Kaptain Koivu could hit 400 career points tonight with a multi-point game
Tonight will also be Dustin Brown's first trip back to the Xcel after nailing Pominville in the head last season. Pominville, as you should already know, signed a 5 year 28 million dollar contract extension this morning.
Let's get ready for puck drop Wilderness.
