via a release from the Minnesota Wild,

Saturday’s Minnesota Wild game was the highest-rated regular season Wild telecast ever on FOX Sports North. The Wild’s 4-2 win vs. Colorado generated a 7.65 household rating in the Minneapolis – St. Paul DMA, according to Nielsen Media Research.

That easily tops the previous regular season high of 4.6 set Dec. 13, 2011 vs. the Jets.

Sunday’s match-up against the Stars also broke that previous record, generating a 5.35 rating.

In the Minneapolis - St. Paul market, 17,280 households represent one rating point. That means over 132,100 households tuned in for the Minnesota Wild’s season and home opener on Hockey Day Minnesota.
