In the past 2 weeks the NHL has released lists of the Top- 10 NHL players from Finland, Sweden, Russia, Canada, Czech Republic, Slovakia and the United States. I think the lists were an aim to boost revenue overall in the NHL, people like to come to see the "bests" at anything... and if one of the Top 10 players happens to be on your home team than how could you not go out and buy tickets to a game or two... smart marketing.
Weather it was a smart marketing ploy by the NHL or an altruistic ranking for bragging rights alone, the Minnesota Wild can be proud to claim members from the lists. The No. 1 Finnish Player was Mikko Koivu and the No. 3 spot on the list went to the Wild's Niklas Backstrom. On the Top-10 Czech players list, MN Wild free agent Martin Havlat was ranked No. 7. Two former Wild roster members: Marian Gaborick (an obvious choice) and Pavol Demitra both made the Slovakian list. With the Wild making such a good showing on "the lists" if my guess is right and this is all a way to hype ticket sales, I would suggest buying MN Wild Tickets early before there are none left!

Good evening,
My name is Richie Denis, I’m the director of business development at MVN.com.
I found your blog in a google search. I was wondering if perhaps you’d be interesting in establishing your blog at MVN.
We’d love to have a blog of your quality on the Most Valuable Network where we enjoy 40,000 page views daily.
There are a few different options:
1. You can write for one of MVN.com’s blog and promote your current blog through this site. All that we ask is that you post to MVN atleast once a week.
2. You can move your blog over to the Most Valuable Network.com and establish yourself there.
3. You can create your own blog on MVN and do a mixture of the two prior options!
Please let me know if you’re interested. As I said before we’d love to have you aboard! I can get you up and blogging right away.
Suggestions are welcome.
Sincerely,
Richie Denis
Director of Business Development
Most Valuable Network
