Fifteen Greatest Minnesota Wild Players: #13 Brad Bombardir

Number thirteen on our list of the Fifteen Greatest Minnesota Wild Players is another original member of the Minnesota, who has a very dubious franchise first to his credit. Defenseman Brad Bombardir became the first player to be traded to the Minnesota Wild on the dame day of the expansion draft. The Wild would swap claimed goaltender Chris Terreri back to the team who lost him in the expansion draft the New Jersey Devils in exchange for Bombardir. Bomabardir would spend four seasons in Minnesota and gain a reputation as one of the young team’s strongest leaders.
