TEAM MANAGEMENT

Chuck Fletcher is in his third season as General Manager for the Minnesota Wild after being named to the position on May 22, 2009. He oversees the Wild’s hockey operations department including all matters relating to the club’s player personnel, coaching staff, scouting department and minor league operations.

In his 19th season in the National Hockey League (NHL), Fletcher made a splash last off-season, acquiring Dany Heatley, Devin Setoguchi and Charlie Coyle from the San Jose Sharks, while adding to the club’s prospect pool, selecting Jonas Brodin (No. 10 overall), Zack Phillips (No. 28 overall) and Mario Lucia (No. 60 overall) at the NHL Entry Draft. The Wild added a number of NHL players during the 2011-12 season claiming Nick Johnson off Waivers and acquiring Erik Christensen, Tom Gilbert, Steven Kampfer, Kurtis Foster, Nick Palmieri and Stephane Veilleux in trades as the team used a franchise record 47 players. Fletcher also signed top prospects Brodin, Coyle, Philips and Jason Zucker to entry-level contracts and re-signed Kyle Brodziak and Nate Prosser.

Prior to joining the Wild, he served as the Pittsburgh Penguins Assistant General Manager for three seasons including the 2008-09 Stanley Cup championship team. Fletcher worked closely with Penguins General Manager Ray Shero on all hockey-related matters, including scouting, overseeing the development of young prospects and contract negotiations. He also managed hockey operations for Pittsburgh’s

American Hockey League (AHL) affiliate, the Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins. Under his leadership, Wilkes-Barre/Scranton reached the AHL’s Calder Cup finals in 2007-08, and the division finals in 2006-07 and 2008-09.

Fletcher has also been to the Stanley Cup finals in management with the Florida Panthers and the Anaheim Ducks. His extensive NHL management experience includes a four-year stint with the Anaheim Ducks from 2002-06 as Director of Hockey Operations, Assistant General Manager, and Vice President of Amateur Scouting and Player Development.

The Montreal, Que., native also spent nine years in the front office of the Florida Panthers from 1993-2002, working seven seasons as Assistant General Manager and one season as Interim General Manager. In 1996, the Panthers advanced to the Stanley Cup finals.

Fletcher, the son of Hockey Hall of Famer Cliff Fletcher, graduated from Harvard in 1990 and spent one year as the Sales and Merchandising Coordinator for Hockey Canada and two years as a player representative for Newport Sports Management before making the transition to the front office.

He and his wife, Rhonda, have two children, Kaitlin and Keith.

Craig Leipold is the majority owner and principal investor in Minnesota Sports & Entertainment (MSE), a regional sports and entertainment leader that includes the National Hockey League’s Minnesota Wild, the Houston Aeros of the American Hockey League, 317 on Rice Park and the facility management of Xcel Energy Cen-ter, Saint Paul RiverCentre and the Legendary Roy Wilkins Auditorium. He oversees the day-to-day business operations of the organization and also serves as the team’s Governor at NHL Board of Governors’ meetings. The NHL’s Board of Governors officially approved Leipold’s purchase of MSE on April 10, 2008.

Under Leipold’s ownership, the Wild is dedicated to building a Stanley Cup contend-ing franchise, playing an important role in the community through service initia-tives, providing a fun and entertaining game-night experience and building strong relationships with its fans and corporate partners.

A resident of Racine, Wis., Leipold completed the sale of the Nashville Predators to a local ownership group on December 7, 2007, a team he owned since the expan-sion franchise was awarded to Nashville in 1997.

During his time as an NHL owner, Leipold has been a tireless advocate for the pro-fessional hockey industry. Appointed by NHL Commissioner Gary Bettman, Leipold serves on both the League’s Executive committee and Audit committee. Steadfast in his belief that a new collective-bargaining agreement needed to give smaller markets like Nashville a chance to succeed economically and on the ice, he was a member of the League committee that negotiated the CBA with the NHL Players’ Association in 2005. He is also a strong advocate for the new, more “fan-friendly” NHL, including the rule changes to promote a more entertaining competition and increased fan access to the product.

Craig and his wife Helen (Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Johnson Out-doors, Inc., Chairman of Johnson Financial Bank Corp., and Chairman of Diversey, Inc.) have five sons: Chris, Kyle, Connor, Curtis and Bradford.

The Wild also acquired Boston University standout Charlie Coyle from the Sharks.

Overseeing his first Draft in 2010, Flahr was responsible for using the ninth overall pick for the selection of Finnish forward Mikael Granlund, Central Scouting’s top-rated European player. He also selected Brett Bulmer, Johan Larsson, and 2010-11 WCHA Rookie of the Year Jason Zucker in the second round of the Draft.

The Wild’s prospect pool was the most improved in the NHL compared to last March in The Hockey News 2012 Future Watch.

Mike Yeo was named the Minnesota Wild’s third Head Coach on June 17, 2011. Minnesota posted a record of 35-36-11 in his first season as an NHL Head Coach, as the team used a franchise record 47 players. Yeo, the youngest Head Coach in the NHL, helped lead the Wild’s primary affiliate, the Houston Aeros, to a 46-28-1-5 record and the Calder Cup Final in his first season as a Head Coach in 2010-11. The Aeros led the Western Conference and ranked third in the AHL with 46 regular season wins after it did not qualify for the playoffs in 2010.

Prior to being named the Aeros Head Coach, Yeo served as an Assistant Coach with the Pittsburgh Penguins (2005-10). During his tenure in Pittsburgh, the Penguins claimed the 2007-08 Atlantic Division title, ad-vanced to the Stanley Cup Finals twice and won the 2009 Stanley Cup championship. He joined the Penguins coaching staff when Michel Therrien was named Head Coach on Dec. 15, 2005. During his first full season in 2006-07, Yeo helped the Penguins to a 47-point improvement from the previous season, the fourth-largest turnaround from one season to the next in NHL history. In his second season, he helped lead the Penguins to the Stanley Cup Final for the first time since the 1992 season. Yeo remained on staff in Pittsburgh during the 2008-09 season after Dan Bylsma replaced Therrien on Feb. 15, 2009, and the Penguins went on to win the Stanley Cup.

He began his coaching career as an Assistant Coach with the Penguins’ top minor-league affiliate in Wilkes-Barre/Scranton (2000-05). Yeo helped the Penguins earn a Western Conference title (2001), an Eastern Con-ference title (2005) and two appearances in the Calder Cup Final (2001, 2004). In 2005, Wilkes-Barre set an AHL record for the best start to a season by boasting a 21-1-2-1 record with 15 straight road wins before Yeo was promoted to Pittsburgh.

The left wing played five seasons with the Aeros (1994-99) and accumulated 127 points (55-72=127) and 511 penalty minutes (PIM) in 317 games. The native of North Bay, Ont., served as captain of Houston’s 1999 Turner Cup Championship team. He played 19 games for Wilkes-Barre/Scranton in 1999-2000 before suffer-ing a career-ending knee injury.

Yeo and his wife, Tanya, have a daughter, Braeden, and a son, Kyler.

Lapointe’s role with the club focuses on scouting and evaluating talent in all amateur and professional leagues. He works closely with Assistant General Manager Brent Flahr and General Manager Chuck Fletcher. While working with the organization, Lapointe has aided in the selection of young players including Pierre-Marc Bouchard, Brent Burns, Cal Clutterbuck, Marian Gaborik, Mikko Koivu, Nick Schultz, Mikael Granlund and Jonas Brodin.

Lapointe joined the Wild staff after spending nine years (1990-99) with the Calgary Flames. He served as a Scout for the Flames for seven seasons (1990-95, 1997-99) and as an Assistant Coach for two seasons (1995-97). Prior to his tenure with Calgary, Lapointe held the position of Assistant Coach for five seasons (1984-85, 1987-90) with the Quebec Nordiques (Colorado Avalanche). The Montreal native also served two seasons (1985-87) as General Manager and Head Coach of the Longueuil Chevaliers of the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League.

As a player, Lapointe played 16 NHL seasons (1968-84) and was a member of six Stanley Cup championship teams with the Montreal Canadiens. He also played a key role for Team Canada at the historic 1972 Summit Series against the Soviets, was a member of the 1976 Canada Cup championship team and represented the NHL in the 1979 Challenge Cup against the Soviets.

Jim Mill is in his third season with the Wild as Assistant to the General Manager. He reports to General Manager Chuck Fletcher and helps oversee the day-to-day operations of the Wild’s hockey operations depart-ment, assisting with contract negotiations, player development and scouting. Mill also serves as the General Manager of the Houston Aeros of the American Hockey League (AHL).

Mill helped bring key free agents to the Aeros, including Drew Bagnall, Jed Ortmeyer and Warren Peters, and hired John Torchetti, a Stanley Cup winner with Chicago, to serve as Houston’s Head Coach in 2011-12.

Last season, Mill rebuilt the Aeros’ coaching staff, hiring Head Coach Mike Yeo and Assistant Coaches Darryl Sydor and Brian Wiseman. That group led Houston to a 46-28-1-5 mark, a Western Conference champion-ship and the team’s second trip ever to the Calder Cup Finals. Yeo and Sydor were hired this past summer to lead the Wild.

Prior to joining the Wild, Mill spent 11 years working for the AHL. He joined the AHL’s hockey operations staff in 1998, was promoted to Vice President in 2001 and was named Executive Vice President of Hockey Operations prior to the 2007-08 season. In addition to personally supervising some 100 games every season, Mill man-aged all facets of the league’s hockey operations department, including management of the AHL’s officiating program, recruiting, hiring and assigning on-ice officials to supplement those in the National Hockey League officials development program.

Mill also oversaw the league’s disciplinary process for fines and suspensions, and developed and executed the 1,160-game league schedule and coordinated the playoff schedules with all participating teams. He also served as the league secretary to the AHL Board of Governors.

Mill’s tenure in the AHL office came after he served as Assistant Director of Hockey Operations at the East Coast Hockey League (ECHL). Prior to joining the league’s front office, Mill served as Assistant Coach and Director of Player/Community Relations for Tallahassee (ECHL) in 1996-97 after completing a four-year career as an ECHL goaltender (1992-96). He also served on the executive board of the Professional Hockey Players’ Association.
