Minnesota Hockey Ventures Group, LP
 PROFILE
Their Stars might reside in Dallas, but Minnesotans are still wild for hockey. Minnesota Hockey Ventures owns and operates the Minnesota Wild NHL team, which began playing in the 2000-2001 season and quickly set records for ticket sales by an expansion team. The franchise was awarded in 1997 after the Minnesota North Stars moved to Dallas in 1993. Minnesota Hockey also operates the Xcel Energy Center, the Wild's new $130 million arena, and it manages St. Paul's convention center. Robert Naegele Jr., who once owned Rollerblade (now owned by the Benetton Group), owns about 70% of the Wild. Other investors include local broadcaster Stanley Hubbard and heirs of the Ordway family (early 3M investors).
