Despite speculation, it appears the Minnesota Wild won't be changing their colour scheme to green and yellow of the former Minnesota North Stars.
After a report surfaced Wednesday that the team was planning the switch as part of a 2025-26 rebrand, the Wild told Michael Russo of The Athletic there is no truth to the reported change.
"Not based in fact," the team told Russo.
Zero truth to this the #mnwild tell me. “Not based in fact.” https://t.co/xvq9VwONVQ

The Wild have worn the North Stars’ colours in recent seasons while playing in their "Reverse Retro" uniforms.
The North Stars played in Minnesota from 1967-1993 before relocating to Dallas.
The Wild joined the league as part of the NHL expansion in 2000.
