It’s no secret that the Dallas Stars and Minnesota Wild have a pretty rough history. Ever since Norm Green made the monumental decision to take the Minnesota North Stars and move the franchise to Dallas, TX, things have never been entirely too friendly between the two cities when it comes to hockey.
Things have quietly been building in terms of the rivalry between the Dallas Stars and Minnesota Wild (who were founded in 1999 to replace the North Stars). It all sort of came to a climax when the Stars and Wild were placed in the Central Division as part of the 2013 NHL realignment.
