The Minnesota Wild have rebuffed a report that the team is returning to North Stars colors for the 2025-26 season

The Wild have quieted rumors that the team is moving to North Stars colors in a fewyears.

The Minnesota Wild have worn forest green and red for some time and on Wednesday, a rumor circulated that the team would be moving on soon.

According to a report from Icethetics, the Wild would allegedly be switching to Minnesota North Stars colors of green, gold and white in the 2025-26 season as part of a rebrand. The Wild have used North Stars colors before for alternate jerseys, but this is the first mention of them sticking around full time and replacing Minnesota’s current slate of colors.

The North Stars were Minnesota’s previous hockey team before the team moved to Dallas in 1993 and became the Dallas Stars. The Minnesota Wild came around seven years later and has been the State of Hockey’s team ever since.

However, via Michael Russo of The Athletic, there seems to be no truth to this rumor according to the Wild.

Given that the timeline for this is scheduled for 2025-26, there’s still time for the Wild to change their minds. Still, NHL fans are excited at the prospect if it does eventually come true.
