ST. PAUL, Minn. (AP) – Jordan Leopold had thought about returning home, if the opportunity arose to play for the Minnesota Wild.
He never could have imagined his daughter becoming famous for her desire to have him back.
Leopold joined the Wild for the morning skate in preparation for their game Tuesday night against Ottawa, the 34-year-old slated to play on the third pair of defenseman with a bunch of his family members and friends bound to be in attendance.
This is what young Jordyn Leopold hoped for when she put her developing persuasive writing skills to use in a letter asking the Wild coaches to pursue a trade with Columbus to bring her dad back home.
Leopold said the whirlwind of the last several hours have been ”a humbling experience.”
