Man Tony, I agree with us building the team like Dallas, but can’t for the life of me shake the Norm Green move to Dallas and the cup win a few years later.  Plus the Cowboys Hail Mary win over the Vikings makes me hate all things Dallas.  Edmonton is my hope.

Nice article, Tony, and some really good comparisons to what the Wild could become. No problem seeing the Stars win it all and watching Granlund, Dumba and Oerttinger celebrate. Modano, too, probably.

For me there's just something sentimental about the Oilers and the Cup finding its way back to our friendly neighbors to the north. I'm in my 60's and loved watching Edmonton in their hay day. Nothing against the other three remaining teams, but it would be nice to see the Cup where there is snow and ice and cold.

Modano is the Wild Hockey Ops Supervisor.  You do know that right?

No matter how much you like and miss Dumba and Granlund, I could never cheer for a division rival, especially Benn, Hintz et al. Even though they’re Canadian, I’m rooting for McDavid and gang.

I'm still rooting for the Wild.  I realize my chances aren't good. Don't care. Lol

I like to see teams who have never won a Cup before bring one home but that's not going to happen this year. I think there is only nine teams left on that list the Wild being one of them. If it can't be a team that hasn't won before I like to see players the Wild have traded away get their ring. Dallas has a Dumba, Grandlund and Steel so I have no problem seeing them win one.
