The Minnesota Wild is the professional ice hockey team based out of Saint Paul, and they play in the Central Division of the Western Conference. The Wild were founded in 1997 but did not participate until the 2000-01 season. This was the first NHL franchise located in Minnesota since the North Stars relocated to Dallas in 1993. Only two years after their inception, the team found its way into the playoffs but did not make its way out of the first round. The teams only playoff wins were in 2007-08 when the Wild were division champions.
The team’s logo is supposed to depict a forest scene in the side profile of an animal silhouette. The “eye” of the animal is the North Star as a tribute to the previous Minnesota team. The team began filing its trademarks in 1997 when it was founded, ensuring the earliest priority date. While they have worked hard to secure priority, the team has not expanded its trademark portfolio to include popular phrases.
For instance, in 2008, the team adopted Nordy as the mascot – an ambiguous wild animal with a classic ‘hockey hair mullet’ – that wears number 18,001 as a tribute to “The Team of 18,000.” The phrase “Team of 18,000” comes from a sellout crowd when the old Minnesota NHL team (then known as the Dallas Stars) came to visit the Wild for the first time. Since then, the fan base has been known as part of “The Team of 18,000.” The Wild has foolishly made no moves to trademark such a phrase, even though it is well known.
