Minnesota Wild
The Minnesota Wild has supported DTBL from the very beginning in 2009.
Several Wild players also support DTBL. This professional hockey team is based in St. Paul, MN and they are members of the Northwest Division of the Western Conference of the NHL. The team was founded in 2000 after the MN North Stars moved to Dallas in 1993.
In Februay of 2011 the Wild warmed up wearing camo jerseys that were later auctioned off on NHL.com through an incredible fundraiser for DTBL. See the 2011 video...
The MN Wild has supported DTBL by hosting events including the Minnesota Wild's tribute to Derek Boogaard Night on Sunday, November 27th, 2011 during which they and the Boogaard Family made a major donation to DTBL.
In February of 2012 the Minnesota Wild Foundation once again partnered with Defending The Blue Line for the Wild Camouflage Jersey Auction. On Sunday, February 26th each Minnesota Wild player wore a custom-designed camouflage jersey during the pre-game warm-ups. Proceeds from the auction are being used to help military kids with their love of hockey. See the 2012 video...and see the photos from that night...
DTBL would like to thank the MN Wild for all of their continued support through the years.
