The Wild are probably icing their best team ever at the moment, led by superstar winger Kirill Kaprizov (16 goals, 14 assists and 30 points in 18 games), the second-best defenseman in the game Quinn Hughes (6-19-25 in 18 games) and three more top-tier players in left winger Matt Boldy (7-10-17 in 18), defenseman Brock Faber (injured to start the year) and young goalie Jesper Wallstedt (11-2-3 in 16 games, 1.99 goals-against average and .922 save percentage).
Kaprizov's 475 points in 397 career games is already second-most in team history, behind Mikko Koivu's 709 (in 1028 games, 2005-20); barring serious injury, Kaprizov should surpass Koivu by 2030 and eventually reach the 1000-point milestone. He's already first in career goals (230), ahead of Marian Gaborik's 219 (2000-09). Koivu holds the career assists mark (504), but three current Wild players are on pace to be within range: defenseman Jared Spurgeon (315, second), Kaprizov (245, fifth) and defenseman Jonas Brodin (216, ninth).
In terms of goaltending, Niklas Bäckström leads the way with 409 games played and 194 wins, he has shared the Jennings Trophy with Manny Fernandez and joins Dwayne Roloson as recipient of the Roger Crozier Saving Grace Award (Roloson in 2003-04, Bäckström in 2006-07); he is probably the top dog for now, although Devan Dubnyk is the one with a Second All-Star Team nod (2014–15). Two Wild goalies have won the Bill Masterton Memorial Trophy for perseverance, sportsmanship, and dedication to ice hockey: Josh Harding (2012-13) and Dubnyk (2014-15).
Which brings us back to Koivu, the team's longest-serving captain and current holder of most games played. Here he is wearing the Wild's white (away) uniform from 2000-13, on card #SW7 from Upper Deck's 2009-10 Series 1 set and All World Team (Finland) sub-set:
