In news that may bring a bittersweet tear to the eye of many an NHL fan, the Pittsburgh Penguins posted a tweet announcing the retirement of the elder statesman of the NHL, Matt Cullen:
Cullen twice wore number seven for the Wild, the first time for a three-year stint from 2010-2013 after coming to Minnesota as a free agent from the Ottawa Senators, and the second time for a one-year deal in 2017-18.
Born on the iron range and schooled at St. Cloud State, Matt Cullen fits the definition of #oneofus more than almost any other player to wear the Wild green and red.
