Minnesota Wild History
The state of Minnesota was without an NHL franchise for seven years after the 1993 departure of the North Stars. That void was filled when the city of Saint Paul landed the Wild as an expansion team in 2000. Hall of Famer Jacques Lemaire took over as the franchise's first head coach.
The Wild advanced to the Western Conference Final in 2002-2003 behind the play of right wing Marián Gáborík, and has gone on to post a winning record in almost every season since. Starting with the 2012-2013 season, Minnesota reached the postseason six consecutive times.
Center Mikko Koivu spent his entire NHL career with the Wild and is the franchise's all-time leader in games played, points and assists. In 2022, the Wild retired Koivu's jersey, the first player in franchise history to have a jersey retired. Overall, the Wild has qualified for the Playoffs 13 times in its history.

I usually sit on the first level above the glass, but saw a ticket available behind the Wild bench and thought that it would be cool to watch the players and coaches on the bench up close and personal. While I did enjoy that end of things I just wasn't up high enough to get a good view of the ice. Oh well, it's back to the 14'th row and up for me. Great game though and I had great fun none the less. LGW!!
Great seats and convenience for electronic tickets. The game was an entertaining event that gave us many reasons to want to attend another one.
I bought 2 seats at the rail in the upper deck. The online map shows them together with no obstructions. When we got to the arena, there was a HUGE pole between my seats. So my son and I had to be separated for the entire game. I had to stand on the back of his chair when I went to his side to be with him to watch the game. The arena staff were nice and told us that we weren’t the first ones to be screwed over by this. I talked to the Xcel staff after the game and they were understanding of our issue and offered us 2 tickets to a future game for our inconvenience, which was very nice. Get the arena map fixed Ticketmaster!!
We love the Wild and the entire Excel staff! I didn’t like the seats we picked this time. I’m really short and I had an awful hard time getting up on the chair. We will be back next month with better seats! Go Wild!
I was only a few rows down and got to my seat OK. The “Usher” Helped keep my four wheel walker away from the crowds and watched over it for me. I was all alone because my guest didn’t make it. But it was a good time except for the game. Everything went well otherwise.
Was a amazing game. Had seats right on the glass and it was a great atmosphere! Even the other teams fans were respectful but still heckled the whole game but it’s hockey and that’s what made it feel like a real hockey game. It was my first one and seats were roomy and even got in seat service. Cannot express enough how much fun I’ve had tonight! Everything was A++
Everything about this experience was outstanding; the venue was taken care of, the atmosphere was amazing. The game riveting.
More mens room areas. Lines are ridiculous. In between play give a few breaks on the noise for conversation. Too loud and constant to have any conversation. Have to leave the game and go in the concourse to talk. Game and everything else is great.
If you can afford it, I would highly recommend you buy on the glass tickets at least once. I was sitting 12 feet away from the goal crease. You are right there when someone gets checked into the boards or is chasing the puck in the corner. Talk about photos? You will be able to post or show coworkers and friends your close up action shots. After I bought my tickets, I received and E mail that gave me more information about the ticket. Much to my surprise, there is an On The Glass Club Room. It opens 90 minutes before puck drop and is only for on the glass ticket holders. You enter Gate 5 then take an elevator down to sub level. You are given a wrist band after you verify your seating. The On The Glass Club has free food and beverages. After Puck drop the Club opens up after each period and will announce when it's time to return to tour seat. Since my first experience at the Wild vs Flames game I have bought on the glass for 2 of the play off games. " LET'S GO WILD .'
The customer service at the Xcel Energy Center during the MN Wild game was on another level. Every worker we came into contact with (from the Hockey Lodge, to security, to concessions) was so polite and helpful, had constant smiles on their faces and acted like serving us was a joy. It was so awesome! I have never been to an event where the service was this impeccable across the board.
We really enjoyed the game & loved our seats!! However, we did have a hard time initially finding our seats and then when we did there were others sitting in them... it was disappointing in that these people seemed upset/irritated and continued to talk with the other people near us that they were upset about moving (our seats were upper deck). Beyond that, it was a great game.
Watching The Wild live was an amazing experience! I cannot wait to go to another game.
The game was great! The atmosphere was great! The lack leg room un the upper side level is awful! I'm 5'2" and barely had any room! Made for an uncomfortable night.
Such an amazing experience.Great seats, Great crowd, great food, great experience! Will do again for this price!!
Excel Energy Center is a fantastic venue for hockey and the fans are awesome. Enjoyed a fun night and all the seats are great. I have been to several concerts there too and also a great place for music!
Being a house Divided - My Stepson a Wilds Fan & I being a Krakken - we had a blast. Howard there at the Xcel Center was an incredible employee helping people make memories taking pictures as he directed people to their seats and helped stop people from pounding on the glass. I was surprised on the comeback the Wilds had but I had a Kraka-lakken of a good time and of course my Stepson was pleased his team won. Security gates had an easy flow and touchless got you to your seats fast. Excellent processes which makes for a more enjoyable game!
You often hear that there are no bad seats at xcel. I disagree. SR 118 was great if the people in front of you are sitting. But when they stand you can't see a thing! You can only see the bottom 1/3 of the jumbo tron too. I would discourage purchasing tickets in this section.
We love attending college and professional sporting events, but the Wild Games are by FAR superior to the rest. Organized/quick Entry to well marked sections. I’ve never experienced an angry fan OR crabby staff yet. Fun atmosphere for children and adults. Have always felt safe and security can be seen everywhere. Will continue attending as often as we can!
Great game, great venue! Love our MN Wild!! Please let us resume bringing in a small, clear plastic bag!! Women’s pockets do not accommodate a wallet, reading glasses, tissues, etc!!! Please!!!
Tickets on the phone was perfect Thanks will be using it again.
