Fav All time Minnesota player (Wild or North Stars): Darby Hendrickson...oh he's still on the team?
Fav Current Wild: Brent Burns.
Fav Non Wild Players: Tomas Holmstrom, Simon Gagne, Wade Redden, Brian Rafalski, John LeClair, Rod Brind'Amour, Al MacInnis, and the beat goes on.

Fav Wild moments (at the game) in order: game 6 vs. COL, game 6 vs. VAN, Wild's first victory vs. EDM, 6-0 vs. DAL.
Fav Wild moment (TV): Andrew Brunette's OT winner vs. Roy. The expressions on Jacques' and Mario's faces...priceless.
How long I have been a Wild fan: It would depend on what one considers a "fan".
Origin of screen name: Roman Cechmanek, of course. He gave up an untimely, deflating, and arguably soft 5-hole goal in the first game of his NHL playoff career. To me that was the symbol that sparked the many conversations about Roman's playoff worthiness, or lack thereof.
Jerseys owned: I'm ordering my #10 "Holdout" Wild jersey soon.
