The building the North Stars called home in the attendance data Ticket Timeline uses—useful when an old ticket names the Met Center or Metropolitan Sports Center from the Bloomington years.
Coverage in Ticket Timeline's game data starts in 1967, the year the North Stars joined the NHL as an expansion franchise. Metropolitan Sports Center opened that fall in Bloomington.
If your ticket says Met Center, that is the same Bloomington building as Metropolitan Sports Center. The shorter name was adopted in 1982; earlier stubs more often print the full Metropolitan Sports Center name.
The franchise relocated to Dallas in 1993 and became the Dallas Stars—the successor. Minnesota then went without an NHL team until 2000, when the Wild joined as an expansion club. Plenty of people who packed the Met Center now follow the Wild, but those are two different franchises. North Stars nights stay in this archive; Dallas nights belong on the Stars page. The Met Center was demolished in 1994. Bobby Smith, the 1979 Calder Trophy winner, and Minnesota native Neal Broten were the faces of those Bloomington years.
The Minnesota North Stars hosted NHL games at Metropolitan Sports Center in Bloomington, MN, USA, from 1967 to 1993. Dates for those nights are anchored in Central time. The building list above is what Ticket Timeline uses when an older ticket names the Met Center or Metropolitan Sports Center.
Use that timeline when dating a night: Metropolitan Sports Center (1967–1993) was the North Stars' only home, commonly called the Met Center after 1982. A 1981 or 1991 stub can mark a Stanley Cup Final run. The last home game in Bloomington was April 13, 1993, against Chicago; the franchise then continued in Dallas. Rebuilding North Stars attendance is usually a scavenger hunt: paper tickets and PDF confirmations, camera-roll scoreboard dates, calendar invites, season-ticket statements, and memory anchors (companions, rivals, life events, arena names on stubs). Work season by season; a partial list of attended games is enough to start matching opponents and arenas. When confirmations live in Gmail, import games you've attended walks through a read-only preview before anything is committed. For a shoebox of stubs, see what to do with old ticket stubs.
Once you've logged North Stars games you attended, Ticket Timeline surfaces the attendance story—not a live scoreboard. Visited insights can include nights at Metropolitan Sports Center (1967–1993), commonly called the Met Center.

If your stub says Metropolitan Sports Center or Met Center, you were at the North Stars' only home in Bloomington—the same building, often printed under the shorter name after 1982. A 1981 or 1991 Stanley Cup Final ticket is from a Cup run that ended against the Islanders or Penguins. The printed name and opponent help date a night from a club that left for Dallas in 1993.
