3ITB’s Top 33 Wild Players of All Time – #13

13. Jason Pominville – RW

4 Seasons,  249 Games,  63 Goals,  96 Assists,  159 Points

During the shortened 2012-13 NHL season, the Wild were looking to add some scoring and a top line winger to help with their playoff push. The Wild landed Jason Pominville from Buffalo at the trade deadline. Along with Pommers came a 2014 4th round pick, in exchange for LW Johan Larsson, G Matt Hackett, a 1st round 2013 pick and a 2nd round 2014 pick.

Although he only played in 2 post-season games that year, Pominville had a solid first full season the following year, leading the team in goals (30) and points (60). Even with a bad 2015-16 season, Jason still has an average of 2 points every 3 games during his Wild tenure. Signed through the 2018-19 season, we’re hoping last year was a fluke year for Pominville and he gets back on top of the Wild score sheet.
