Defending The Blue Line® (DTBL) and the Minnesota Wild today announced Wild defenseman Matt Dumba donated $8,900 to DTBL as a result of “Dumba’s Hit’s for Heroes” – an initiative announced in October to raise money for the charity throughout the 2015-16 season. Dumba originally pledged to donate $100 to DTBL for each hit he recorded at Xcel Energy Center during the 2015-16 Minnesota Wild regular season (32), but at season’s end, decided to increase his donation to include hits from both home and away games during the regular season and 2016 Stanley Cup playoffs – a career-high 89 hits.
