Report: Minnesota alumni to wear North Stars-themed Wild jerseys
While it's uncertain how the Minnesota Wild and North Stars alumni will mesh as a team, they'll likely look good when they take the ice at TCF Bank Stadium on the University of Minnesota campus.
The Wild alumni will wear a green North Stars-themed jersey with the team's logo on the front while the North Stars' contingent will have stars on their chests, according to Vintage MN Hockey. Collectively, the group will tangle with former members of the Chicago Blackhawks on Feb. 20.
