Minnesota Wild Season Performance Statistics
Since inception, Minnesota Wild has only managed to win one Division Championship in the 2007- 2008 season under Jacques Lemaire. He scored his 500th win in his coaching career with that victory. In the previous season of 2006-2007, the Wild led the league with the highest points throughout the season. Minnesota Wild seems to play well throughout the season and then choke at the Western Conference playoffs. However, they do well offensively, (not as well as they should obviously) because their average goals scored by the team is high per season. They are also always in the top five throughout all the seasons they have played in the different divisions.
