Home venues in Ticket Timeline's game data
Buildings the Wild have called home in the attendance data Ticket Timeline uses—useful when an old ticket names a former arena or an earlier naming-rights label.
Coverage in Ticket Timeline's game data starts in 2000, the year the Wild joined the NHL as an expansion franchise and Xcel Energy Center opened.
If your ticket says Xcel Energy Center, Ticket Timeline recognizes it as the team's one and only home arena. Note: the Minnesota North Stars—the state's earlier NHL franchise, which relocated to Dallas in 1993 and became the Dallas Stars—are a separate team with a separate venue history, not part of the Wild's own building record.
The one building the Wild have called home in the attendance data Ticket Timeline uses—useful confirmation when an old ticket names Xcel Energy Center.
Minnesota Wild play home games at Xcel Energy Center in St. Paul, MN, USA. Dates for those nights are anchored in Central time. The Wild arrived in 2000, seven seasons after the North Stars' departure left Minnesota without NHL hockey.
