Wild Honor Winonan as Hockey Builder

The Minnesota Wild spotlights a Winonan who's poured decades into building community hockey from the ground up in the State of Hockey. This isn't just a pat on the back; it's recognition from a franchise that knows the unsung heroes keeping rinks full and kids skating long after the pros leave town. With the Wild Foundation deep into their Skate It Forward push, honoring locals like this one underscores the real stakes in growing the game where it matters most.
