The past few seasons of Minnesota Wild hockey has been a lot of fun. We've had our happy days, sad days, some real head scratchers and even a few of those elusive stolen games.

The Wild go to the playoffs, and the Wild meet their inevitable doom against the Chicago Blackhawks.
Yes, just as every morning the Sun will rise, every Wild playoff appearance the past few seasons has ended with the Blackhawks bouncing the Wild from the second season.
