Will Andrew Brunette Return to the Wild?


Andrew Brunette and his wife will be at Wimbledon over the next week or so. Brunette recently switched agents and is eager to join a contender. The Wild have not made the playoffs since he rejoined the team. Brunette is 38 years old so it would make little sense for the Wild to re-sign him. The Wild are looking to get younger, faster, and tougher. Brunette brings the toughness, but not the other wo characteristics that the Wild feel they so desperately need.

The good news is that a younger and faster Wild team will be tons of fun to watch, Looking for tickets? Buy them from Ticket King! They have great service and are just across the street from the Xcel Energy Center
